Avantages

Fast-pace company, lots of Jobs opportunities

Inconvénients

Advertisement for Jobs should say: Are you a workaholic? Do you like working every evening and on weekends? Are you single with no kids? Then come to work with us! Especially with Product Managers positions, goals are totally stretched, there is no time to invest in trainings/learnings, everybody is overloaded. And don't take me wrong, I always enjoyed being busy, but this is totally insane! As Luxembourg is in between business in US and Europe, you have meetings during the day with Europe and at night with Seattle. During the weekend is when you can finish your work (lots of reports to do, montly results for ALL stakeholders, quartly results, etc). Everything is for now, or maybe tomorrow. I have worked in other two big companies and I have never seen something like this. Salary seems good at first, but for the hours I"m putting, I am probably paid like a cashier of a fast food restaurant. Before joining I read some similar experience here but I decided to give it a try. Big mistake. All people say about no work life balance is true. If you are considering a job in Amazon, double check the team you are entering, hours they have to put, etc. There are some rare exceptions in other teams, but be aware!!

Avantages

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.

Inconvénients

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.
