Pros

At Amazon the overall culture is great to develop your hard and soft skills. You will be faced with difficult technical challenges, learn to work within a large organization that makes agility, and also be surrounded by people who have experience doing the same. It's a fast-paced environment, but can be rewarding as well.

Cons

The team your on can make a difference in your day to day culture. This will determine response to delays and misses/learnings. Ideally leaning opportunities are embraced and shared, but in some teams the value for speed and agility outweighs. Something to balance.

Pros

At AWS, you can both do work that affects millions of customers, and have the freedom to experiment and innovate at work. Also, there are several teams working at different parts of the company, and changing between them is very common.

Cons

It takes a while to feel like you can really contribute, and there is a general feel of learning to swim by jumping into the deep end of the pool. But there are numerous resources to help you.
