Pros
Stock options, free lunch, complimentary Audible subscription account
Cons
No work life balance. Too much on call duties, as there is no separate support team for handling production issues, development team is responsible for both development and maintenance/support and its mandatory for a developer to perform oncall duties. With oncall duties its hard to plan any vacation. This place is full of h1b visa holders, they work 60 hours/week and if you don't do the same, it will be reflected in your annual performance reviews. Its very hard to move internally to other amazon offices because of politics.
