Pros
  • Very flexible work options (can be pure virtual)
  • Nice people. I reached out to many Amazonians and almost always received a warm reply.
  • Lots of workshops and opportunities with professional development.
Cons

Once you work here, you start to see the cracks of bureaucracy and unwarranted redundancy. It's kinda lonely in the new/remote offices. Teams are hit or miss. My team was awesome, while I've heard some bad things about other teams.

Advice to Management

More benefits, akin to other big tech companies, would be great.

More consistency in management would be good.

Kinda more general, but from looking online, I feel like Amazon has a big trust issue with the general public. I think the company needs to do more to earn trust with people who are generally frightened by Big Tech.
