Pros

Great place to grow your career, lots of intelligent people to work with, and managers are usually very reasonable and considering. Not much politics at all. And of course CEO is the top notch one with great vision.

Cons

Oncall sometimes could be a little bit invasive to your personal life but still manageable after you know what you are doing. Benefits is good but not great.

Pros

Not that I could find out as compared to any other tech giant I have worked for. Every company has techies, so does this company have. Perks are not that great

Cons

The piece of information that recruiters don't share is that Amazon also has stack ranking. Also, the performance improvement program is just a show-off which managers use to save some group of people in their team. On the name of frugality, management saves every penny on the earth. Not good in benefits. Increasing cost of insurance. I will never recommend anyone work for Amazon ever.

Pros

The stock is not bad, I guess. And you can say, I'm working at Amazon.

Cons

It's more like a business company compared to other giants like Google or Facebook.
