Pros

Competitive compensation and benefits. Learning and career growth. You have big potential to growth in your role or switch to another role.

Cons

Vendor Lock-in in Your Skill Set: Your day-to-day work is heavily tied to AWS-specific services and internal tools. This can make it harder to stay broadly skilled in multi-cloud, on-prem, or non-AWS technologies Layoffs and Instability.
