Pros

Work hard have fun and make history. Decent pay as compared to its competitors, and one gets to work on latest technologies.

Cons

Frugality is one of the things which I don't like about amazon, the company is very particular about the expenses.

Pros

Quality of work is good, it is very fast growing changing environment so lots of opportunity to grow and learn new things. Good compensation, they give exactly what they promise on offer letter. No hidden charges.

Cons

Frugality misplaced. We spend more in areas we should not and save in areas we should not. Employee goodwill and loyalty is compromised as a result.
