Pros

Great benefits, deliberate and well-intentioned human resources, strong initiatives to invent and hire the best talent. Amazon boasts a vastly diverse workforce that continually cultivates innovation and opportunity.

Cons

Large number of organizations within company creates unnecessary red tape/bureaucracy, certain groups encourage stress-inducing around-the-clock coverage, overly complicated solutions for otherwise simplistic issues.

Pros

Perks and the possibility to get a better job. If you can work in Amazon, you'll find easy to work anywhere!

Cons

Employees must state weaknesses of their colleagues in their performance reviews. These are taken to build up cases against other employees. Every morning a few mandatory questions prompt in the system to gather employees' feedback about managers, coworkers, any intention to quit the job or rate the company coolness. This combination (along with the fact that there is rarely room for promotion) encourages an unhealthy company culture of distrust among employees. In two years that I was there, I had the impression I didn't know the people in my team and I learnt myself to mind my own businesses only. Questions and pushing back changes are not normally welcome. Employees must abide by any rapid changes and tenet "show a backbone" would not really work. Some marketplaces (e.g. India) get larger workloads. Noticeably, they are expected to be available am and pm, in meetings at indecent times!

Pros

Innovative environment and well organized corporation. I really like the frugality approach.

Cons

The "insist in high standards" motto should be followed for the sake of employees as well. Some tools that we need to use are poorly designed (i.e. Adobe Site Catalyst).
