Pros

As a pros, I can only say benefits Amazon offers such as health insurance package, any doc expense coverings (some docs costed me over 1k to translate and shipping, all covered by Amazon)

Cons

- Managers are so bad! Your day typically depends on their MOOD. Some day my manager comes to our 1:1 meeting and says rude words and says sorry I don't have a mood today. It really spoils your day and effects to your productivity. - Forget WLB. Too much work. I remember to meet the performance I worked till 2-3am at least 2days in a week.
