      Good Overall but find the right team with good management

      Systems development manager

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      You get to contribute to changing the way AWS operates and provide a great experiences for the customer. Seeing real time impact to what you do which changes the way teh AWS looks and operates is very rewarding

      Cons

      Most of senior management is an echo chamber of "yes men/women" instead of having the engineer in mind along with the customer. Changes implemented seldom will work toward a harmonious work life balance and often will result in over stress and over work of the engineers and mid-low level management. On top of all of that, due to the echo chamber of back patting "behind the desk" leadership, policies are put in place to drive pointless metrics instead of focusing on their mission... "Strive to be the world's best employer".

      Terrible Work Life Balance and Management Style

      Strategic customer engagement
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Great total comp and opportunities to work on the top strategic deals out there (deal sizes ranges between $100M to $1B in total contract value).

      Cons

      Terrible management. Very top down driven. Drives a lot of distrust internally within SCE and also toxic relationships with other organization stakeholders. Long long long hours and constant push to do extra side projects despite already overworked.

      A long way to go to be Earths Best Employer

      Solutions architect

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      You are surrounded by driven and knowledgeable people in the industry within just about every business vertical and technology niche. For most people, employment here represents a career launching pad.

      Cons

      I was one of the most tenured people in my whole org after 3 years. I had 7 managers in that time who sometimes had up to 30 direct reports. You need to be self driven to progress as even as in early career, you will get no mentorship you don't fight for and your calendar will be filled by other people and teams if you don't relentlessly prioritize.
