Pros

Some people are genuinely passionate about their work and their teams

Cons

company is currently dealing with mass attrition due to RTO. This is directly impacting women, caretakers, and people with disabilities. Morale is extremely low and senior knowledge holders are leaving daily.

Pros

Compensation, benefits, coworkers, leader in the industry

Cons

Questionable HR practices, billions of dollars of time wasted on grammar review in documents. If a sentence is understandable and without spelling errors, why waste time on making pretty prose? So many hours are wasted on this at AWS / Amazon, it is especially hard for folks for whom English is a second language.

Pros

Amazon offers a great opportunity for NGs and provides great salaries and benefits.

Cons

The team you work with relies heavily on luck. Most of the time, your manager would hire you in to fire you. And other times, they'll force you to do a lot of work under pressure. Once you fail to do so, you are going into the Focus and Pivot and can never come out.
