Pros
- Opportunity to climb the corporate ladder at Amazon - Lots of hard-nosed colleagues and leaders will improve your people skills - The hiring process is actually effective
Kontras
- You feel like a cog in a machine, no matter what they say as profits consistently take place over people (and customers) - Legal will breathe down your neck as they are constantly worried about Jassy having to testify in congress - Some of the VPs are the most uninspiring corporate robots in the industry - Pay is way below the par for product marketing - after I left my new job at another enterprise paid me £20k more p/a. - Benefits are dreadful, very poor pension match - Clunky reporting structure and goals mean it's impossible to get anything done quick - There are many, many glass ceilings on being hired. You often have to wait until someone leaves.
