Pros

I'll always look back at Amazon as the best three years in my career, filled with the most learning. Smart people, sky high expectations. Don't expect an easy desk jobs.

Cons

Lots of long hours. Need to be more employee friendly. Frugality sometimes is taken to an extreme.

Pros

Plenty of work to be done. Lots of interesting, fun people to engage with. Fascinating problems to solve, I get to take on as much work as I want. Note, this means that I have to understand what workload I can manage, and negotiate that with my manager. This is a company where you need to where your big kid panties and speak up if things aren't right.

Cons

Management capability is really uneven (I've had both some of the best and worst managers of my 30+ year career). Plenty of work can mean too many distractions to focus well. Plenty of vision, but not enough guidance/coaching on the priorities.
