Pros

I enjoy Amazon because there is usually some interesting project going on that has world wide impact.

Cons

Operational work can be time to time a bit more challenging, especially if you're on call and owning legacy systems. I'd also like to see better food/fruits/snacks/drinks in the office.

Pros

The volume of learning and growth you experience is unmatched, given that you are committed to make the most of it. Your team will be some of the smartest people you ever worked with

Cons

Your experience is highly dependent on the Org. and your Manager. If you see any red flags here, be ready to walk away because they will dictate what your experience will be like at Amazon. Poor Managers will use power and intimidation to enforce compliance from you if theres anything about you or your performance they don't like.
