Pros

Good tech stack. Lots to learn if you can survive. Although its doubtful.

Cons

Extreme work conditions. Extremely tight deadlines. You are expected to deliver 2 weeks of work in 1 week. You are expected to work 15+ hours and deliver along with weekends. No regard and respect for employees. Not sustainable at all for anyone sane. You will be over-burdened with work most of the time. No concept of work life balance. Overpopulated place. Nobody has time to chit-chat. Grilling machine. If you're not over worked you're a waste of resource. Working on weekends is a norm at Amazon.
