Pros

Amazon was truly amazing and my favorite internship thus far. I have previously interned at Microsoft & Google but Amazon challenge me like no other. I had to learn how to take ownership, be resourceful, drive my feature/project, and collaborate with brilliant team members. The project I worked on had great impact. My team was extremely supportive, kind, and helped me grow technically, personally, and academically. Thank you.

Cons

Fast paced Independent environment. If you require a lot of hand holding, you won't survive at Amazon :(

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.
