Pros

Resume builder, always something to eat for lunch, cheap benefits and great coverage

Cons

Sexist corporate managers, 60+ hour weeks when you factor in having to jump on mandatory calls on your day off and keeping up with emails, always what more can you do to build sales when the issue stemmed from a marketing team that made more, policies in place are flimsy as it's all trial and error, there are upper corporate managers and GMs who do anything to make themselves look better to get ahead while throwing anyone else under the bus, corrupt HR, the pay is underwhelming without any bonuses (you do get stocks but not all at once and they aren't worth much anymore).

Pros

You will have a recognized company name on your resume which will open you better opportunities outside.

Cons

Working for AWS is a reality show! You will be ranked on your team and the last will be shown the door. Get ready to be in a constant survival mode, and work long days and weekends.
