      Pros

      I joined Amazon AWS 3 months ago. So far, it has been n excellent experience. I am managing a team of great engineers who are well-trained, talented, and dedicated to doing the right thing the right way. Coming from a company that was very top-down, I am really enjoying the bottoms-up planning process. I feel much more ownership over the team's strategy, and it takes very little effort to get the team to buy into challenging & valuable tasks. Everyone takes work-life balance seriously, and we have freedom to enjoy our lives.

      Cons

      Some big company clunkiness. With the bad economy, there are now travel & hiring restrictions, but that is understandable. Benefits are slightly above average for the industry.

      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.
