- Dogs are allowed.
- Urban campus.
- High salaries and benefits.
- Amazon requires bosses and managers to have promotions and hires approved by external people brought in to identify biases.
- High-pressure workforce.
- Full accountability for your actions.
- As a result of the above, it can be a very political place; however, there is a push to be as meritocratic as possible.
