      Avoid at all cost

      Senior system development engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Good builder tools which improves developer productivity.

      Cons

      Senior and mid level managers are fighting for promotion and there is too much bureaucracy which trickles down to developers. Company doesnt have a clue how to win the AI race and hiring/firing at the same time. A big shuffle is going on in the company so the job location is a hoax. They are asking to relocate on a short notice failing which will cost ur job. Equity promise is only on offer letter as they make very effort to not give u the stocks by asking u to relocate and giving bad ratings at the end of 2 years. No promotion for developers and the senior engineers make every effort to sabotage by rejecting change requests and making them later to get the promotions.

      AWS: great place to get hired, even better place to leave

      Senior solutions architect
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - Access to the best cloud - incessant drive for constant improvement *will* make you perform at your best - there are some super smart and passionate people at AWS

      Cons

      AWS does not care about anyone but their top 5-10% Give 100%, they'll ask for more At no point will your contributions be "enough" You'll always be worried about some performance review or being let go
