Pros

AWS and Amazon Digital are great places to work. Lots of new product developments happening there. AWS Database services is especially cutting edge work. Customer obsession. Products and technology are built not just because it's possible, but also because it is useful to customer. Most companies just do things to improve Ads which I don't think improves the life of the customer. Salaries of top performers are at-par of better than what industry offers. Excellent operational focus.

Cons

Salaries of average performers below par what others at industry offers. Less guidance in climbing up career ladder. Some parts of the company have lots of legacy systems. Heavy on operations and low on new product development. New product developments are fast paced. Not a place for those wanting a good work-life balance and lots of perks (e.g. free lunch) to boast about.
