Pros

* Good compensation * Interesting projects * Competent people * Really about the customer. In terms of compensation, I never felt under-compensated. Projects were generally interesting, and the people I worked with were generally very competent. You get the impression people really care about the customer. It's refreshing, and somewhat mitigates the amount the company pushes you.

Cons

* Always demand a lot * Bad - terrible work/life balance * Few additional benefits Amazon will always demand a lot from you, not just your managers, but your peers as well. Faltering is something that will tend to be noticed.
