Consider Jeff Bezos and the organizational culture of Amazon. list 5 pros and 5 cons of the Amazon culture. Would you want to work there based on this?

Answer 1

5 Pros of Amazon Culture:

1. Provides great opportunity to learn and enhance their skills
2. Will come across highly experienced and intelligent people who could guide them to advance their careers.
3. Option of Work from Home
4. Offers competitive benefits and compensation
5. Company is always open for new ideas.

5 Cons of Amazon Culture:

1. Cutthroat work environment
2. Not favorable in maintaining work-life balance
3. Rewards being given without merit
4. Inconsistent management
5. Not an employee friendly approach of the senior management

Based on this, I don’t think I would work there. Though the pros are good, but the cons are enough to decide that it won’t match with my expectation and perhaps I won’t be able to give my 100% in such culture.
