Pros

If you can get away from the legacy technology there's a lot of cool new stuff being worked on, and the people there are generally brilliant and passionate. It's a good place to learn a lot about technology and best practices.

Cons

Your job has to come before your life -- beyond the dreaded pager rotation, people routinely work evenings and weekends at home, and in general you need to have your head in the job 24/7. Amazon has a deservedly bad reputation for how it treats low-level employees, partners, and basically everyone it does business with. Not a place to work if you want to have a warm fuzzy feeling about your employer.
