Pros

If you like to work on new things and need a place to grow, Amazon is an amazing place to work. Great salary, smart coworkers, and adequate benefits.

Cons

Needs a lot of ownership and a self-starter mindset to progress.

Lack of vacation days: only 2 weeks in your first year.

Advice to Management

Match the industry in terms of vacation days. Everyone works hard, so having a few more weeks of extra vacation would not hurt the bottom line.
