Pros

People are really dedicated to their work. Amazon does not have a culture where you are told what to do. You drive the work, you argue on prioritization, change the way your team operates, and impact delivery. You work with extremely dedicated and sincere people, who work as if it's their own company. You get to learn end-to-end development, from requirements, development, testing, deployment, and maintenance.

Cons

If work is not your first priority, you may feel that work is encroaching on your life, as you hardly get time to practice your hobbies, etc. No one asks you to work overtime, but because of peer pressure and how things move, you may feel the pressure of being available to your clients after office hours. If you stop working as a learning experience, things may not look very much on schedule.
