Pros

Amazon Web Services is innovative and large. There is a massive amount to do and learn so, if you like to learn, this is a really great place to be. They also take paying competitively very seriously.

Cons

It can be overwhelming. If you give AWS 24 hours per day of your time, it'll ask for 25. At the moment, there is a minor threat of layoffs but, that's mostly due to the macro-economic state, not necessarily specific to AWS.

Pros

Really smart people, a lot of opportunity for growth, always encouraged to be innovative, think big, and create something new. Competitive salary and benefits with other major tech companies. 100% self motivating work environment. No dress code and 4 legged friends are welcome.

Cons

You have to be self motivated. NO ONE will hold your hand and tell you that you're doing a great job. If you need constant affirmations from management, this company isn't for you.
