Pros

- you are surrounded by smart people constantly - you are pushed to give the best of yourself - you learn a lot - you are 'where the business grows' - multiple professional opportunities, with new teams and projects created in permanence

Cons

- often too demanding: split personal and professional life sometimes complicated to maintain - 'never enough' mentality which is exhausting after some years in the company - not enough emphasize on management and on training people to become managers - very hard and demanding process to evolve - if you don't get one more 'Level' your remuneration does not increase well

Pros

What I love about working at Amazon is that you get to be surrounded by brilliant, hard working AND kindly people. It's extremely rare to find a company where one's opinion and ideas (always based on data) are listened to and even valued. Nowhere else have I felt I could have such an impact on my company and customers (internal and external). It's a thrilling and exciting company to work for.

Cons

Sometimes evolution is based more on communicating well than actually working hard and not all avenues are made available or known.

Only 24 hours per day. And so many things to learn.
