Pros

I am working as SDE on AWS for 3 years. The projects are most about customer facing features and internal re-architecture and optimization. You can see the real impact of your work and feel excited about it. The problems to solve are very challenge in term of scalability, latency and customer variety. I learn a lot from AWS.

Cons

Low compensation compared to other 1st and 2nd tier tech companies. No free food. If there is bad leadership, you may feel pain because of unrealistic expectation and wrong product direction.
