Pros

The well-known reading/writing culture fuels good discussions.

Tech roles will be surprised on reading and writing non-tech topics 7 out of 10 times, and I am convinced it is a good thing.

Amazonians are among the smartest and most resilient individuals I've worked with.

Cons

A lot of your career development will depend on having a good manager.

Amazonians will need to identify if this is the case quickly and move somewhere else otherwise.

Advice to Management

Be present and lead by example.
