Pros
I was aware of all the negative comments about Amazon before joining, and had serious considerations about choosing microsoft vs. amazon. Eventually I chose Amazon because the team seemed to be a better match and because of the open-source developmental environment at Amazon. So far I have not regretted yet. Amazon is super fast pace, had good compensation and offers a lot of opportunities to learn. People at my team are nice, and my manager is very reasonable person and encourages work-life balance.
Cons
No gym, and the holiday is only 5 days per year.
