Pros

Not much that I can think of.

Cons

Amazon culture is being forced down the throat. Most of the hires are from AWS. The culture was supposedly good, but the work-life balance is getting worse and worse while more and more meetings are occurring.

The Observability org is particularly bad for this, but the AWS culture is everywhere.

Advice to Management

Stop hiring people from Amazon management.
