      Pros

      Nice pay. Other then the pay there isnt much of pros. the work isnt bad but its also not good either. domain knowledge is all you need.

      Cons

      Well amazon cares about customers but not employees. For a fresher you can gain knowledge about technology for a little bit more experienced person its not a software development company its a retail company. the software development practices are horrible. The tools used internally are a pain. And also forget about having a life out of work. the people in india expect you to work in day and people in usa expect you to work at night. there are no flex hours and you are not expected to work from home or something like that will not be appreciated

      Pros

      There is clear career direction and growth which is offered via documents that indicate how to get promoted and what qualities you need. The work environment is a meritocracy. If you back up your ideas with reason, people will listen. There are many opportunities for learning, growth, and achievement. You just need to show some initiative.

      Cons

      The management is hit or miss. There are some managers who really know what they are doing, and they get promoted rather quickly. There are other managers who are not that great, and eventually get promoted because of the results they command from their team. It can take a big effort to convince management their plan is not good.
