Pros

Amazon is a very innovative and progressive company. Amazon values employees who are motivated and exceed expectations. There is a large potential for promotion, Amazon is growing at an incredible rate

Cons

Very competitive environment. Not a company for someone who wants to come to work do the minimum and go home. Some good employees get looked over for advancement because they don't have a four year degree

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.
