Relentless pace of work
Relentless pace of work
Smart people Generally good technology
You will work with very smart and driven people. AWS is a huge market leader and is very useful to startup, small, and medium-size companies. Enterprises are the current target, and if public cloud takes off, it could transform Amazon into a top software company.
Work-life balance
Difficulty in measuring tasks
The company and each group has an infinite amount of work. The "con" is knowing how to determine what to do and what not to do. Priority 2 items simply don't get done. Getting used to the pace and the triaging of work assignments is critical to success.

Got an online assessment. It took me 3.5 hours and asked about Amazon values and questions about networking and Linux. If you have good IT fundamentals and decent reasoning skills, you should be fine.
