The ability to take ownership in my day to day was definitely one of the highlights working here, and the innovation I was allowed to have.

Cons

The hours were absolutely insane, I worked 24/7.

Pros

Amazon pushes you to always be thinking bigger, improving your processes, and becoming more agile

Cons

Not for the faint of heart looking for a company where you can coast or fly under the radar

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.
