Pros

I'll be forever thankful for my time at Amazon. The connections, people and the associates ultimately made Amazon feel more like home than work! It also allowed me to grow into an operations level leader, even acting senior operations leader, despite not having a 4 year degree!

Cons

Limited room to grow past operations level management if unable to relocate quickly

Pros

Cross training that helps for faster growth and more experience.

Cons

Sometimes you gotta hurry and find equipment or pit equipment before others snag them and leave you with the “bad” ones. That take forever to get repaired.

Pros

Really smart people, a lot of opportunity for growth, always encouraged to be innovative, think big, and create something new. Competitive salary and benefits with other major tech companies. 100% self motivating work environment. No dress code and 4 legged friends are welcome.

Cons

You have to be self motivated. NO ONE will hold your hand and tell you that you're doing a great job. If you need constant affirmations from management, this company isn't for you.
