Pluspunten

The salary is pretty high, all-in-all I was at about 160k/year. Still not worth it.

Minpunten

The culture is awful, if you're a software engineer I highly suggest you find another job as there are many more. I worked in downtown Seattle for an AWS team, and everyone in the building I worked in seemed perpetually depressed. Hours were long (some team members worked 30+ hours straight), and almost all employees were foreigners on H1B visas who were more-or-less forced to put up with the conditions or leave the country. In addition to this, the internal tooling is really old and outdated, leaving few opportunities to learn cutting edge technologies and the developer operations is an extremely mismanaged nightmare. I've never seen people crying at their desk like some claim to have seen, but nonetheless, this is obviously not a healthy place to work.

Pluspunten

Medical/ dental/ vision insurance, mental assistance, 401k, lawyer assistance, Career choice, VTO, PTO, vacation time

Minpunten

Most AMs have avoritism among employees. We get mandatory extra time (now is calling "voluntary" but you have to go when it is schedule) at the end of the year, what makes difficult for some of us when we have kids and they're really rigid about it.

Pluspunten

Echt slimme mensen, veel kansen voor groei, altijd aangemoedigd om innovatief te zijn, groots te denken en iets nieuws te creëren. Competitief salaris en secundaire arbeidsvoorwaarden bij andere grote technologiebedrijven. 100% zelfmotiverende werkomgeving. Geen dresscode en viervoeters zijn welkom.

Minpunten

Je moet gemotiveerd zijn. NIEMAND zal je hand vasthouden en je vertellen dat je het geweldig doet. Als je constante bevestigingen van het management nodig hebt, is dit bedrijf niets voor jou.
