      Amazon is rapidly losing what made it special

      Software development manager
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Ambitious projects if you're in the right team. Typically great team-mates. Don't believe the memes, the ppl are not back stabbing jerks but are overall genuinely nice. Not constrained by budgets when building cool things. Tools while sometimes clunky are powerful.

      Cons

      Schizophrenic lack of focus, entire teams get split, merged and upended multiple times a quarter. Some product managers are disconnected from reality. It didn't use to be the case, the PM-Ts were previously top notch. You're pushed to vibe code everything. Established products with loyal customers are getting neglected. Newer VP level leaders don't seem to know what they are doing. Veteran OG VP level leaders are either leaving in droves or seem stressed or checked out.

      Good technical growth, but team and manager quality matter a lot

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Overall a great place to grow technically — learned a lot about large-scale distributed systems, production operations, and ownership. Had the chance to work with many smart and supportive coworkers across teams.

      Cons

      * On-call rotations can be hectic depending on the team * Internal processes and cross-team politics can sometimes be draining * Like many large companies, your experience heavily depends on your manager — a bad manager can really impact day-to-day work and overall morale
