Pros: It was an awesome opportunity working with super-smart people and learning to be a more effective engineer and teammate by learning the leadership principles. The managers really seem to take "hire and develop the best" to heart and are amazing mentors that set you up for success as an engineer at Amazon or any other company. They're also super accommodating to your future career plans/goals if you plan on returning. I learned so much, loved the work environment of being a team player and working as a team to deliver results, and loved the super interesting projects.
Cons: None that I can think of
