Pros

Good team + good manager == good experience. When you have the opportunity to work on a significant project, which is more common at Amazon than other large companies, it can be a tremendous learning experience. Oncall/operational load on my team is manageable. Pay is good.

Cons

Arbitrary deadlines from external teams and upper management can make life stressful at times. Executive level RTO mandate: relocate or be "voluntarily terminated." Hard to feel inspired to work for a company that doesn't want you here. Not much of a culture compared to other companies. In general, not many special perks, happy hours, or team outings (although this can depend on team).
