At amazon you are provided ample opportunities to learn. you are given your own AWS account to learn and experiment and you are given difficult tasks to overcome.
1. Work life balance is terrible and management isn't bothered about it 2. The work you do at amazon has little or no value outside of amazon. Technologies are too specific to amazon 3. There is a lot of office politics at amazon which makes you wanna leave this place as soon as possible
