Pros

Company tenets reflect my own in striving to be successful and valued as part of the workforce.

Other benefits include flexible work hours, a strong mix of self-reliance and teamwork at the workplace, and amazing benefits and pay.

The sense of value you feel in accomplishing work and contributing to the wider infrastructure that Amazon provides is an amazing feeling.

Cons

Some downsides of being at Amazon are mostly related to ramp-up time for new hires. Teams often have a lot of information to learn, and many times new hires are thrown into the fray with not as many chances to reach out to tenured co-workers.

It can be daunting asking for help in a busy workplace, but this quickly lessens with time.

Advice to Management

More group ramp-up opportunities for new hires should be considered.
