Pros

Amazon.com is a great place to work due to its rapid growth. There are many opportunities due to the opening of new facilities nationwide.

Cons

Amazon.com involves a lot of extra hours with no overtime pay. The salary could also be improved for the amount of work that is put in.

Pros

Descent pay Benefits are descent Brilliant people to work with from all over the world Challenging environment

Cons

Don't expect to take time off (vacation or personal days) and not have to answer calls or work during that time. Expect to work 50 to 80 hrs per week. Churn and burn Echoing another Amazon blog: "Very fly-by-the seat of your pants. Everything was a fire drill, even minor issues."

Amazon is a large company with many teams that have different charter and different job requirements. Candidates should really evaluate each team separately.
