      Great being a customer, terrible being an employee - Human Resources Manager Amazon Employee Review

      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.

      Great leadership experience, fast-paced environment, strong team environment, and valuable exposure to operations management

      Long hours during peak periods, high performance expectations, and work-life balance can be challenging.

      Pros

      Really smart people, a lot of opportunity for growth, always encouraged to be innovative, think big, and create something new. Competitive salary and benefits with other major tech companies. 100% self motivating work environment. No dress code and 4 legged friends are welcome.

      Cons

      You have to be self motivated. NO ONE will hold your hand and tell you that you're doing a great job. If you need constant affirmations from management, this company isn't for you.
