Minpunten
No always great being an Amazon employee Quality of Amazon mgrs, directors and VPs is very uneven (some great, some are simply terrible) Product focus is often short-term (get something shipped, and we'll fix it later..) Employees are treated a bit like contractors (little real investment in employees) Amazon benefits are worse than nearly all comparable companies On-going financial incentives are heaped on the top of the pyramid- not the rank and file (negotiate hard before accepting a job) Amazon rarely helps an outside cause, the community or a charity Amazon is not particularly concerned about who it steps on as a consequence of its ambition
