Pros

I'm really enjoying working with such skilled people, there is so much room for learning and growth here, and there is a very clear path for career progression that doesn't involve becoming a manager (unless you want to, that exists as well).

Cons

Early on there is a pretty steep learning curve. Amazon is a big company, and has a lot of its own tools, so it can take a while to learn how to translate your existing skills and knowledge into action at Amazon.

Pros

Really smart people, a lot of opportunity for growth, always encouraged to be innovative, think big, and create something new. Competitive salary and benefits with other major tech companies. 100% self motivating work environment. No dress code and 4 legged friends are welcome.

Cons

You have to be self motivated. NO ONE will hold your hand and tell you that you're doing a great job. If you need constant affirmations from management, this company isn't for you.
