Pros

If you see a problem, no one is going to stop you from grabbing it and developing an improvement

Cons

Highly unlikely that your pro-active efforts to fix a problem will benefit you personally. I witnessed manager directly benefiting (promotion) from other peoples initiative. Totally ripped off the people who developed the ideas, claiming them as his own. As George Bush Jr tried to say, "fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me."

Pros

Learn how a very large web company works. Can get involved in the cutting edge of data center design.

Cons

Very high turnover and general dissatisfaction of employees with how the company treats them. Very little formal training and oversight. There will always be more work to do; you could work 60 or 80 hours per week, or more. Some people have done >100 hours for more than one consecutive week, and Amazon tries to push you to do so. Just hope that you are non-exempt!
