Pros

Very good pay for the first 2 years with the cash bonus. Stock is okay but the lousy base pay is disappointing. I work with smart, dedicated coworkers who appreciate my skills, knowledge, and experience prior to joining AWS. Work culture does support good work life balance compared with start up hustle.

Cons

Senior leadership just sound and behave like absolute amateurs. Their words do not align with their deeds. Leadership principles are for thee and not me. RTO decisions and communication have been been opaque and lacking in any data. Remote work is real and the technology exists to make collaboration even better than being in an old fashioned office. I think Amazon is going through their Steve Ballmer period. Long term thinking, innovation, honest discussion are all second class priorities compared with preserving and maintaining existing revenue and markets.
