Pros

Scale and lots of opportunities for growth. Smartest people you will ever work with. Never a dull moment.

Cons

Work-life balance can be tricky. If you're ready to work long hours that are adrenalin filled, this is the place.

Pros

Lot of intelligent people around. You can learn about high concurrent system, scaling and it's troubleshooting. It is truly customer obsession company but not an employee one. Lots of project. Pay is decent.

Cons

No worklife balance. Growth opportunity is very less. You will get less time and exposure to learn new feature for Oracle DBA. It's Frugal concept make your chances slim to learn new stuff and feature. Mostly DBA times goes for moving the database from one box to another due to hardware issue. Clearly there is no future for DBA and Support Engineer in Amazon.
