Pros

Ownership and freedom to pursue your ideas. Ability to set expectations on your own terms.

Cons

Some team are better than others. As with any large company, your first team can be a hit or miss. But Amazon more than makes up for this by not one allowing freedom of movement between teams, but also encouraging cross-pollination of ideas.

Pros

Lots to learn, if you can make the time

Cons

Very hierarchical and dominated by PMs. Mid-level management, in-flighting, dog-eat-dog politics is worse than any other Fortune 50 places I've seen. Highly stressful and certainly not worth sticking around for the money.
