Pros

- Strong culture to keep the business focused on customer satisfaction. Start-up culture of doing things quick and right. Process are kept simple. - Strong emphasis on Diversity and Inclusion. I keep receiving emails about the new webinar or training about this topic. Affinity groups are also in place for employee to be able to discuss things outside of direct teammate or line manager. - Competitive compensation, although the stock bonus they emphasize starts slowly, only after full 2 years and you get the total bonus only at the end of the 4th year. - I had this image that Amazon will make people work like hell, but I found they ramp up my workload slowly. There is a ton of online training to go through the first 3 months.

Cons

Almost never met my colleagues, everything is done online. For a new starter, it's not easy to feel included in the team. Hopefully we get to go back to meet more often at the office. I am not a big fan of 5 days WFH.

Pros

-Lots of opportunities to move across orgs and for upward mobility if you want it. -Fast moving. You are making an impact in the work you are doing. Less red tape to get projects moving forward -Comp for non tech employees is above market.

Cons

1. WLB. Not a 9-5 job and you can be working evenings and weekends frequently 2. Politics - Sometimes its about who you know vs what you know 3. Culture - There is an aggressive culture here where people are direct and have no qualms in calling others out (warranted or not).
