Pros

- The company highly focused on meeting customers' needs - Software development is very mature, and there are lots of tools to support engineering best practices - In general, people are talented and hardworking - Culture based on Leadership Principles is actually applied on a daily-basis

Cons

- Growing in the technical path is far from trivial. Employees really need to fight for their promotions, even if their performance is bar-raising for several years. - Managers don't have much technical knowledge. - Managers and stakeholders are constantly asking for effort estimates, but predicting things at Amazon is very hard, and usually predictions are just wild guesses that people end-up taking as promises set in stone.
