Pros

It could be great if you could find a great, supportive manager and team. Challenging though.

Cons

The company nor no one around you actually cares. The self-service, fend for yourself environment gets a little old.

Pros

Opportunity to figure out what needs to be accomplished, make a plan, and go do it. There is always someone who knows more. Daily, automated, anonymous feedback mechanism that tracks your relationship with your manager so that their manager has insight into the relationship.

Cons

Ambiguity. Most of the time, the need to create something new requires operating without clear direction and I've seen it drive some folks nuts. Being able to work without guidance, a path/process to follow, will be essential for any exempt employee.

Pros

Amazon's Leadership Principles are actually seen in practice every day in my division. New hires are provided excellent training and made to feel included immediately. Internal communication for such a large company is outstanding. Heavy emphasis on learning and bringing your creativity to work.

Cons

Haven't found any major cons after 6 months on the job. Have been very happy here.
