Pros

Some of the most fun and brightest people I've ever worked with work at Amazon Good location in downtown Seattle, as opposed to a suburban campus Fairly good pay (make sure you negotiate for it)

Cons

Management in AWS is disorganized, lacks cohesion with its plans and does not communicate to staff effectively. Managers have a tendency to micromanage and treat staff as mere dogs bodies rather than to act as people managers, lead their teams, and let their staff do their jobs. No perks. Extremely long hours for many, particularly some SDEs, but also infrastructure people.
