Pros

Challenging problems to solve. Huge amount of data to work with. ML applications experience

Cons

Folks who are in Amazon for more than 7-8 year are stuck in internal frameworks. They have no clue of real technical depth. Meetings with senior management can get extremely depressing as most reviews feel like they are focused on finding faults. Too much focus on how docs are written and english rather than on content of the proposals. Promotion culture makes everyone compete with each other continuously and hence focused on finding faults with others work.

Pros

Great people, cool product and super challenging technical environment.

Cons

I didn't live in Portland proper so parking was a pain and expensive (like $15/day) in a parking garage.
