Pros
Great company to learn. It's a very fast paced organization with great growth opportunities. People are genuinely smart. Innovation everywhere and truly cares about the customer. Pay is great and very generous stock grants.
Cons
With the explosive growth Amazon has seen, they have promoted too many people who are smart and great individual contributors into management roles. Most managers don't actually know how to lead. Unfortunately, this will continue to get worse as Amazon expands into new areas. Starting at the top, senior managers lead by being dicks.
