Amazon

Nice pay and a good team of highly talented people.

Worst management ever. Unrealistic expectations, mind games, mental and emotional abuse, in addition to manipulation.

They talk sweet with you as long as they need you. Once they are done with you, they offer you Pivot and make it sound as if it was your fault.

Amazon’s use of Pivot should be made illegal, as they formulate it as if you have a choice to stay under a performance improvement plan (to be fired later with no severance) or leave immediately with severance. This is just to avoid paying unemployment.

If you are a high-level developer, they don’t give you an annual increase as they claim their stock is doing great. But guess what? They will fire you before your stocks get vested and mark you ineligible for rehire. They screw your career so bad that all the benefits won’t make up for it.

Stop lying about being the best employer on Earth. You are definitely among the worst employers.

Your lies are so obvious locally that you always try to hire talent from abroad while claiming diversity.

Stop making false promises, like claiming to allow SW engineers to work remotely, and then you back on it.

Once development is done, you screw your developers and back on all promises. I don't know how you look in the mirror every morning. I hope you can live with yourselves.
