SDE at Amazon, Seattle
You get to work on complex problems, come up with a solution that's efficient and scales. If you enjoy software engineering stuff, I think Amazon is a great place to be. There are tons of internal tooling and smart people to help you along the way. Bonus points: Seattle is a great city and Amazon pays really well.
For me, the only cons have been: you don't get a lot of free food, so you have to take care of it yourself. I have been here for only two months, and I don't see anything that I would say is a con. But then, it depends a lot on the team.
Management tries to be as transparent as possible and include everyone in decision-making.
