Pros

Worked with AWS EC2 Windows, great team.

Exciting environment that is looking to push the boundaries of what can and has been done.

Employees are extremely talented and excited about their work, which makes it fun to be there. They're also fun, caring, enjoyable people.

Treat interns like employees.

Nice compensation.

Great leadership principles.

Cons

Housing was in a really nice hotel, but wasn't very functional for 3 months. The majority of my team had only been at Amazon roughly 2 years or less. Full-time benefits seem to be a little less than competing companies. Overall, great though.

Advice to Management

Keep moving forward, innovate, and simplify.
