Pros

Amazon has its strength in working backward from customers when building products. This keeps Amazon's business solid and meeting the high expectations of customers.

It also has a peculiar culture of emphasizing written communication during meetings, which drives efficient communication and decision-making.

Cons

Work-life balance is a big challenge at Amazon. There is always more work than you can normally handle.

Advice to Management

Making the right judgment call based on priorities and getting help with escalation at the right time is the key to success.
