      Pros

      -Amazon looks good on your CV. -Office location is easily accessible and beautiful. -Luxembourg is a wonderful country.

      Cons

      -Intranet tools dated and cumbersome. -Interaction between Executive Assistants catty and mean. -Low level of trust between same level of co-workers. -Boss would fall asleep during conference calls. -Boss had me making reservations for dinner and hotel for rendezvous with mistress. -Low level of ethical values grated against my minimum standards.

      Where you should work if you are single or have no outside commitments

      Pros

      Fast paced. Learn a lot, get insight into the best logistics company on earth.

      Cons

      Look, the only people that are going to be satisfied working at Amazon long term are people that have no children or any kind of a life outside of work. I would recommend working at Amazon for a few years if you are under 30, want to see how a perfect logistics operation works, and need a Fortune 500 company on your resume. But for heaven's sake, do not stay there, unless you really want to work 60 hours a week the rest of your life.

      Great being a customer, terrible being an employee

      Pros

      Minimal, Good brand on your CV.

      Cons

      Expectation to work all hours of the day - way beyond the norm of reasonable. People were expected to work evenings, weekends, whilst on holidays etc. I also agree with another review that mentioned about the rapid growth - whilst existing employees were expected to suck up the double or triple workload this created. I understand the values - but they took frugality to another level. I have never worked anywhere quite so shabby, it made me depressed walking into the office every day.
