Pros

Forward thinking mentality. Customer centric. Smart colleagues. Good learning experience for how to be frugal, work harder than you ever have and get no feedback or praise in return.

Cons

The intensity would be too much for anyone to deal with. It is very normal for senior-management to yell at each other in large groups and employees. Managers get right in your face. I've always been on the top tier of employee reviews which doesn't matter. Everyone at Amazon is anxiously waiting to get out. So many statements and commitments were broken from the time I interviewed to the time I got the job. My boss changed his tune about almost every issue.

Pros

You learn a lot initially. Good people willing to help. Very good place to learn how not to manage people.

Cons

No matter what the recruiters tell you it is just another call centre. All they care about is numbers. If you cannot make the required numbers they will replace you with someone who can. No matter how good you are they work out a percentage of people yearly and it might be you. Some very bad upper management decisions and appointments in recent years.
