Pros

- Surrounded by lots of great engineers. - Strong culture of building quality products. - Lots of growth opportunities and ability to move around within company. - Leadership Principles are not hollow words by upper management but are practiced every day at all levels.

Cons

Many of the developer tools for internal services are out of date. Amazon can be slow to adopt industry standards/best practices where it would be beneficial to do so.
