Pros

The company is very flexible with scheduling when it comes to choosing your schedule. I work overnight 3 days a week at Amazon which allows me to work a 2nd job in the day time.

Cons

In my opinion their metric system for production is flawed and needs to be dismantled for a better system. Two people pick/pack the same amount of products but the computer would rate one rate of production as not satisfactory and the other person as satisfactory.

Pros

Really smart people, a lot of opportunity for growth, always encouraged to be innovative, think big, and create something new. Competitive salary and benefits with other major tech companies. 100% self motivating work environment. No dress code and 4 legged friends are welcome.

Cons

You have to be self motivated. NO ONE will hold your hand and tell you that you're doing a great job. If you need constant affirmations from management, this company isn't for you.
