Pros

Fantastic experience. Lots of innovation, fast-paced culture, surrounded by smart people, great resume-builder and you will learn a lot! Casual work environment (jeans, lunch served daily). Get to have "an Amazon company" on your resume.

Cons

Insane workload, political infighting, lack of alignment between senior leaders, resulting in constant firedrills with "get it done now" mentality. Absolutely no regard for work/life balance or job satisfaction. Pace is exhausting and burnout is common. Time off/vacation is horrible. In some groups, 12-14/hr days are expected. You will bring work home every night and weekend.

Pros

Audible is an Amazon company. I think as a whole, this company attracts people who are kind and fun spirited. Good product.

Cons

Disorganisation. Commute can be hard.

Pros

Your hours are very flexible as you just have to submit the first 15 minutes of the book by a certain date and then the final audiobook by a certain deadline.

Cons

This was a royalty share contract with no base pay and I only made about $70 total after many hours of work.
