Pros

a lot of opportunities for career growth and challenge, but you have to make your own opportunities-no one is going to give them to you

Cons

everyone works so hard to be the best that sometimes people forget to be collaborative to the point of being internally competitive

Pros

They work you hard, which occasionally leads to burnout, but the work tends to be quite interesting, which makes the whole process satisfying.

Cons

Minimal perks, frugal is an understatement, but occasionally it's to the point of penny pinching. Depending on your team, there may be as little as no team building type activities, though I've heard tales of other teams that do beer and boardgames and pizza quite frequently

Pros

The best reason to stay here at amazon is the Amazon RSU. Since Amazon's stock is doing so well, employees are getting a great deal from their stocks.

Cons

The base salary compare to other companies are low. For the first 2 years, we don't get very little stocks. In addition , working here can get super stressful with multiple deadline due at the same time.
