Pros

Amazon offers a competitive salary.

Cons

They skimp out on benefits.

Health insurance coverage is pretty minimal.

Work culture in most orgs is pretty toxic. Managers often give preference to employees who spend 10+ hours physically at the office. A lot of managers don't know how to measure productivity of SDEs, since they don't themselves have much SDE experience.

Advice to Management

Prioritize work-life balance for employees.
