Pros

Great team to work with. Smart people, most overachievers. Challenging work. Impactful deliverables.

Cons

Senior Leadership cares more about achieving their goals than about the people. A lot of randomization because of Amazon's internal processes. Lack of clarity from leadership and often poor decision making with regards to converging on a solution. Overtime is the norm and not rewarded adequately. The company is not as Agile as it thinks it is. It tries to adopt from the Agile methodologies but every team does things the way they want without a common practice adopted across organisations.
