Pros

Overall good talent and guidance from senior member. A good place to learn large scale system and gain experience.

Cons

Poor work life balance, manger could be trash when comes from external hiring. Also be aware of the co work who was too aggressive in their career, they could be cool blood and sacrificing your interests. There should be pressure from top down but in the end, it's a tough place to work.

Pros

Good pay, interesting problems to solve, and smart teammates.

Cons

No benefits (food, freebies, etc). I know one of the LP has to do with frugality, but wish they were less frugal toward employees

Pros

Lab 126 has a lot of bright engineers and designers, and resources to get things done and ship products.

Cons

Amazon's values are all about the customer -- the employees come second. That means you'll have fewer quality of life nice-to-haves.
