Being one of the Big Five companies in the world, engineers here are the best and shows complete ownership & technically strong. I am learning lot of stuff here and really enjoying working in Amazon. No myths on work-life balance issues, it is just that how you will maintain it.

Pros

* Good salary * Leadership principles are for real * Native AWS development, lots of learning * Nice offices * Good internal structure (small teams, good planning, tech managers) * Nice perks (free coffee, food, beer, courses etc)

Cons

* Painful ops as we have to be oncall for a whole week every now and then * You are chained to internal tools and frameworks * You don't see a lot of promotions to senior positions, even for people with years of contributions
