Pros

- Scale! You get to play with big toys, huge traffic. - Lots of decisions made locally. - Being on the right team and having the right manager makes it a fun, safe place to work.

Cons

- AMZN business practices vs. personal politics - "Promotion-driven-development" - On-call - "Be frugal" = cheap. Very few perks that other FAANG have for avg salary. Canada underpaid vs. US in similar CoL region. Typical.
