Great managers for me so far. Great compensation. Great stock options. Great healthcare.
I love the downtown city campus.
Great work-life balance.

Amazon products are sometimes not cutting edge. They are value-priced, which can sometimes suck for an employee working at a less cool company.
Some teams tend to be siloed. Try not to get siloed.
Not as many employee benefits.
Make the company cool again with market-leading products, even if it's not profitable. It's the market perception that gets the top talent.
