Pros

Incredibly supportive team members that understand the needs of new engineers and do everything they can to support them by providing training materials, mentorship, and always making time to answer questions, whether they are technical or about the team's services. I have grown more than I thought possible as an engineer, and the culture encourages continuous learning. You will become much more knowledgeable in your current role and are encouraged to explore other teams and even transition to new roles to continue your learning.

Cons

Amazon moves very fast, and so you must learn to move at their pace.

This isn't really a con since they do provide support to help you transition and be successful in your role. However, it is still a jarring experience in the first few weeks, especially if it is your first job. But again, you are given the resources needed to adapt.
