Pluspunten

The only good news on this is you suffer 2 or 3 years and, providing your manager likes you, there is a chance you can jump boat.

Minpunten

The infamous list of values Amazon promotes should get another one: being inlove with thyself. These guys believe they own the planet. Their arogance and infatuation is unbelievable. The one and only pure persian soul in there struggles to see the light, hence did not make an exit yet. Plenty of aladdin's imagining they are royal family members. Despite their best effort to keep this from happening, AWS does not always get it right. This team proves it. Sure, if you are only financially motivated and love to manage upwards this team is for you.

Pluspunten

Ambitious projects if you're in the right team. Typically great team-mates. Don't believe the memes, the ppl are not back stabbing jerks but are overall genuinely nice. Not constrained by budgets when building cool things. Tools while sometimes clunky are powerful.

Minpunten

Schizophrenic lack of focus, entire teams get split, merged and upended multiple times a quarter. Some product managers are disconnected from reality. It didn't use to be the case, the PM-Ts were previously top notch. You're pushed to vibe code everything. Established products with loyal customers are getting neglected. Newer VP level leaders don't seem to know what they are doing. Veteran OG VP level leaders are either leaving in droves or seem stressed or checked out.
