Pros

I'm really enjoying working with such skilled people, there is so much room for learning and growth here, and there is a very clear path for career progression that doesn't involve becoming a manager (unless you want to, that exists as well).

Cons

Early on there is a pretty steep learning curve. Amazon is a big company, and has a lot of its own tools, so it can take a while to learn how to translate your existing skills and knowledge into action at Amazon.
