Pros

Company doesn't have cash flow problem, better job security as long as Amazon doesn't have cash problem.

Cons

Rigid, old-style, management, more like low-tech workshop, not suitable for exceptional engineers. Comparing to west coast hi-tech companies, this company is far behind in terms of work culture, value.

Pros

The outlook they present to the outside world. Cool technology and some really smart people. Free beer on Friday if you are lucky to finish work by 4:30.

Cons

The real world that is present inside the company. Unethical company that cannot keep its promises made to employees. Forget promises, it's hard to even keep/retain its employees. Work life balance is a joke. I've heard even folks at amazon Seattle stopped complaining for the kind of work environment here. Unhealthy competition and mudslinging peers only breeds politics, blame game and hatred. It is by no means team building. They bs a lot about amazon leadership principles and expect the employees only to follow them while they can break them.

Pros

Kiva is changing the way Internet retail works, not in the web page, but in the huge warehousing and distribution system that gets products to customers on time. We are fielding the largest swarms of mobile robots in the world. There are incredibly sharp technical people working here, and I continue to learn from the old-timers and from newer employees coming in. Love the people at the top and in the trenches.

Cons

Less love for the managers in the middle. After the acquisition by Amazon there was some fearful behavior and turnover, but that seems to have largely settled out for now.
