Pros
  1. Experienced colleagues and lots of engineers to learn from.
  2. Loads of resources available to engineers to expand their knowledge.
  3. Structured onboarding process.
Cons

Not much, really. Overall, a great place to work. But perhaps the only thing I can think of is the slow, clunky, and fragmented internal tooling used at Amazon, which means you have to learn new tools specific to Amazon. That is, if you ever leave, none of that knowledge is applicable elsewhere.

Advice to Management

Please get someone to create a strategy to unify builder tools under one seamless system, rather than a collection of clunky systems that look like they're from 1999.
