Pros

Lots of smart people, good for building a network Access to cool in-house technologies Work on cutting edge products Good pay

Cons

Managers have high expectations. There is never not a lot of work to do. Lots of emphasis on Leadership Principles. If you get a job at Amazon, be ready to take them seriously Promotions and career advancement is as much about being in the right place at the right time as it is about doing great work
