Pros

Autonomy and capability to leverage great mechanisms to multiply impact for the customer benefits.

Cons

There is no real support and really poor communication from French leadership, in the Sales or in the Solutions Architecture organization, if you, as individual contributor rose issues and bad behaviour from your hierarchy, you can be very quickly evicted.

Pros

- A true self-service company ; this erases the challenges linked to the scale of the company. - Relations with the management remain sincerely human ! - Leadership Principles (LPs) are at the core of all the interactions within the organization. If they feel relevant to you, you won't be disappointed ;)

Cons

- Scale of environment can be overwhelming. - Organizations are difficult to navigate. - Width of required technical knowledge is demanding and constantly evolving (imposter syndrome is at your door...)

Pros

I found an attractive company culture, strongly based on the 16 Leadership Principles. They define clearly the unique footprint of the company. Diversity, Inclusion and Equity, combined with a strong commitment on Sustainability, are the drivers for a positive environment. AWS is growing fast, and investing in several industries. It's a dynamic environment, and a great place to work for proactive people. I love the writing culture. All new hires dedicate first 3 months for the Embark, which is a good way to enter immediately in the expected mindset.

Cons

Challenges are high, hard working is required, and employees should raise the bar continuously. It's a good opportunity for curious learners and dynamic people, while this pressure could be difficult to manage for others.
