Pros

If you are aspiring and can drive yourself, Amazon is the best place. Amazon provides lot of opportunities to own, lead and deliver. Even low level engineers are expected to lead projects and issues

Cons

Amazon benefits and compensation are not the best in the industry. The compensation concern is taken care by stock growth in last few years but still long it will feel like pie in the sky
