Business outlook
Pros
1. Very good pay. 2. Good work culture(it depends on team that you work with) 3. Internal transfers are a big win. There is complete parity and if you do not like your team you can always move to other teams without much issues. 4. Amazon is a highly distributed system and as such for any particular use case a lot of systems are touched. At amazon, if the project is yours then you have to modify all these systems as an away team engineer. This helps one to expand his/her horizon and gather the big picture.
Cons
1. Some teams are a lot overloaded leading to long working hours for them. 2. People can be mean and not very helpful in the beginning and expect you to learn on your own by spending long hours at work.
