Pros
  • Working with some very smart people.
  • Good compensation while stock is doing well.
Cons

Terrible communication from upper management on layoffs, return to office plans, etc.

With the stock price declining so harshly, my pay is decreasing year over year since I started. Other benefits are lackluster.

Work-life harmony is extremely team-dependent.

The company is large enough that working on cross-team projects comes with a ton of bureaucracy.

Advice to Management

Amazon used to plan for the long term and take risks. Now it feels like all the C-level decisions are flailing, short-sighted gambits to prop up the stock price.
