Avantages
Great Pay and benefits, work from home and my peers are amazing. I get to travel as part of my role supporting new launches and that has been a very rewarding perk to the job.
Inconvénients
Pay raises - Amazon will give you stock as part of your promotion or yearly review, but what they dont tell you is that it goes towards your total compensation, so when you are due for a raise a year later, you may very well be over your job's salary cap and not get a raise due to having stocks vest and considered into your total comp. Hypothetical Situation - Lets say salary cap for your role is $70,000. Your base salary is $65,000 and you are awarded 10 stocks at $1,000 for a total of $10,000 that will vest over 4 years. When its time for your raise they will add the $65,000 and the $10,000 together and say you are currently making $75,000 and that is $5,000 over the pay cap for this role, so you will not be getting a raise this year. It is very frustrating and annoying as most if not all new hires for Amazon come in with a stock sign on bonus, so you are very much not likely to get a raise until your stocks all go away.
