Pros

their architecture internal eco system some of the best minds are working around you visionary management

Cons

you will not know how much you lose until you come out. Amazon has the ability to suck you until dry - and make you enjoy it at the same time. there are lot of pros as listed , but you will never know when you are going to be the scape goat for some silly thing like a server peaking its CPU. Oncall rotation is another thing that can feed on your life as a dementor. but beware - you will not notice any of this unless you come out - or they send you out .
