Pros

I had an amazing time working with Amazon. Many learning and growth opportunities. If you are talented and interested, you can move to any field in Amazon. Work culture is at par with any other Company.

Cons

The Only reason why I am not trying to join Amazon once again is because of their Salary Structure. We cannot depend on incentives and facilities all the time.
