Amazon

A great place to work, without a doubt.

Generally, colleagues are helpful and fun to work with.

Many events are held.

If you work hard and play by the rules, you really can promote your way to the top.

Good benefits (in Dublin).

• Management stands in the way of engineers' career paths. They force engineers to work in areas where it’s not necessary, making engineers unhappy and/or leave.

• Regardless of who or where you are in AWS, when it comes to promotion time, the phrase “total compensation” will be used a lot to basically not give you a pay raise. Basic knowledge is thrown out the window during this time.

• Listen to your engineers, as they are the people on the front line.

• Stop trying to fix something that's not broken.
