Pluspunten
As mentioned in the title, I've only worked on one team at Amazon, and it is in the context of a new/secret project, so I'm not sure my experiences are representative of the company as a whole. That being said: - Fast pace - Plenty of responsibility - End-to-end project ownership - Smart co-workers
Minpunten
- Not the most "positive vibe" - Collaboration with other teams can be a bit adversarial (I guess this is a slightly less vague example of my first con) - Work environment: open work space (lots of interruptions), frequent moving (on a rapidly-growing team, anyway), dearth of conference rooms - Focus on code quality tends to lapse severely in the face of totally arbitrary deadlines -- and isn't usually accounted for at all during planning
