Lacks all the flashy perks that a Google or Meta would have. Also, because the company is so large, decisions and hiring get done in a very process-oriented way; exceptions don't get made often. While I had a good experience due to my great manager and teammates, Amazon can be cutthroat if you end up on a team with a bad culture.
