Pros

Amazon is a place where you have an unlimited amount of issues/projects to work on. The company is operated very lean - which means there is always work and interesting problems to solve. You are surrounded by the best of the best when it comes to co-workers. All very bright and focused.

Cons

As I stated - the company is very lean. This also means that alot is expected each employee. Finding a work/life balance is very difficult. (i.e. early morning meetings, evening calls with off-shore partners, pager duty/oncall)

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.
