Pros

High salary would be the very first thing :) work experience in amazon is an added advantage - your talent is already proven if you are into amazon(at least that is what the impression is! ;) )

Cons

Not everyone gets to develop as such. Like any other well established companies, SDEs should do support work as well in the name of ownership.

Pros

My feedback is based on 3 months i have spent in the organization, but i believe intial couple of months provides you the future direction the organization is heading towards 1. Employee get the chance to drive their work. No micro managment by managers. 2. Very flexible in terms of timings to be at work. All that matters is getting the job done. 3. Decent pay compared to other players in the market, but they make you work for each rupee they give you 4. Fun to be at work place with very informal peers and managers. Looking at the person you can never judge if he/she is junior resource or senior. 5. Excellent monetary benefits like Sodexo, internet re-imbursement, Gym re-imbursement and home pickup and drop facility

Cons

1. Sometimes it can be long working hours, maybe 50-55 hrs a week. 2. As US based peers are based out of Seattle, need to take call PST time which can be challenging for india based employees. 3. It could be tough for new employees to understand work fast as the organization lack documentation and hence employee need to learn via trail and error way.
