Pros

Leaders and I use that word very loosely really are not held accountable for much so you can coast on by without doing much, and get promoted. Benefits are great, travel is a perk, remote work is great.

Cons

Culture is awful within AWS Learning. If you are a part of the “in” crowd then you are protected and behaviors and lack of actual deliverables are dismissed or justified. The people whom are supposed to be leaders are anything but real leaders. They take credit for others work, hide behind lies and a false narratives created to justify their behaviors, they bully anyone that isn’t a “yes” person, and no matter how many complaints are filed, they are swept under the rug cause they are in the protected club. The fact that this culture support people begging for accolades and encourages, almost rewarding those that show a desperate need to self-promote is demotivating for those that actually do their job well. One of the worst teams I have ever worked for.
