Amazon

For people working as software developers, software managers, and program/project managers, this is a great company to work for. You are constantly getting to tackle unique and challenging problems to continue growing and improving the customer experience.

Ability to grow within the company is very high, and if you're aiming for a high-level role within Amazon in the long term, it is better to work your way up from within.

Compensation and benefits are good in general for a tech company, but on the lower side compared to other large tech companies like Google or Facebook. (pro and con).

Work/Life balance is heavily dependent on your team and manager.

I have had no issues with it, but other teams have more pressure to deliver and a skewed work/life balance.

Tenure at Amazon is often limited. Having a job at Amazon looks great on a resume (which is a pro), but as a result, many people will leave to join other companies who actively recruit Amazon employees. This can mean high turnover within teams, and that Amazon benefits don't really kick in until year two or later.
