Pros

I have been with AWS for about 1.5 years, there are many pros to AWS. First is the people so far I have been on a team that is very supportive and management has also been very supportive. I like that there is always something new to learn and everyone understands that we are all learning and are supportive and willing to make time to share their knowledge.

Cons

I have heard a lot of complaints about Amazon as a whole especially now with the RTO mandate I truly feel bad for a lot of them and wish them the best. A con would be miscommunication from the top down, lots of management is blindsided by decisions being made from above them.

Pros

- Strong place to be early in your career as it provides valuable training and the brand recognition can create strong future opportunities. - Is great if you’re interested in what you’re doing/selling

Cons

- 5 days in office is not great for work/life balance - If your manager doesn’t like you, good luck! - 401k match is lower than most companies - Base salary compensation is weak compared to other big tech - Leveling/career progression is near impossible due to reorgs leading to a promotion “freeze” - Role can evolve over time in ways that may not align with original job expectations
