Pros

I loved working at Amazon - the headquarters area was really great once we all moved to South Lake Union. It was nice to meet colleagues at one of the many coffee shops or cafeterias. The stock price increased significantly during my time there so my original stock was worth much more than I planned on - a nice surprise. Working on a team with Jeff exposure was challenging and fun - Kindle in 2010-2012 was a GREAT place to be.

Cons

Amazon is a challenging company to work for - there are a lot of long hours, stressful meetings, and travel. It was tough to take all of your vacation unless you specifically made it a priority. However, I think the pros far outweigh the cons.

Pros

When you put it on, it feels like it was custom made for you. You feel invincible. You can you anything and you want to wear it forever.

Cons

Or it doesn't fit. Every time you move it digs into you, it cuts you, and you bleed. You fight and try to force it to change to fit you, it won't. Just admit it. Take it off, move on.
