      Pros

      +Free AWS accounts for experimentation +Learning or 20%project days - depends on the team +Good company values (leadership principles) +Work life balance is great - in PrimeVideo +Good office location - Liverpool Street Station

      Cons

      In short, there are no software engineers (at least in my ORG) here. Everyone is just a PM with a powerful calculator in their hands called Java. Amazon killed my passion towards software engineering. +Wrong implementation of leadership principles - very dependant on the team +No proper benefits (in UK) +No free food

      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.
