Pros

In India Team:

  1. Exposure to AWS: Old code needs to migrate to AWS, and new code should be made in AWS, so you will get great knowledge on many AWS services.

  2. Designing Mindset: Even at SDE1, you would develop a designing mindset.

  3. Learn to work under pressure.

Cons
  1. Some managers practice favoritism:

Some teams have to coach one weak employee each year. So, if a favorite person is weak, they would be let go, so talented people may suffer that coaching if they are new or introverted.

It is hard to cope with that unique experience for hard-working and talented people who could crack Amazon and do a great job.

Advice to Management
  • Have measures to control favoritism!
