Pros

- Puts forth leadership principles and expects employees to act in accordance with them. Makes it very clear as to how to succeed at the company. - Leaders are interested in the development of their subordinates. - Team members care about each other. - As a large company, AWS has clear policies in place and an inclusive culture with plenty of resources for success.

Cons

- People work more than a standard 40 hour week. However, the hours are not bad and there is an expectation that you maintain a work-life balance.

Pros

Ambitious projects if you're in the right team. Typically great team-mates. Don't believe the memes, the ppl are not back stabbing jerks but are overall genuinely nice. Not constrained by budgets when building cool things. Tools while sometimes clunky are powerful.

Cons

Schizophrenic lack of focus, entire teams get split, merged and upended multiple times a quarter. Some product managers are disconnected from reality. It didn't use to be the case, the PM-Ts were previously top notch. You're pushed to vibe code everything. Established products with loyal customers are getting neglected. Newer VP level leaders don't seem to know what they are doing. Veteran OG VP level leaders are either leaving in droves or seem stressed or checked out.
