Pros

Nice pay. Other then the pay there isnt much of pros. the work isnt bad but its also not good either. domain knowledge is all you need.

Cons

Well amazon cares about customers but not employees. For a fresher you can gain knowledge about technology for a little bit more experienced person its not a software development company its a retail company. the software development practices are horrible. The tools used internally are a pain. And also forget about having a life out of work. the people in india expect you to work in day and people in usa expect you to work at night. there are no flex hours and you are not expected to work from home or something like that will not be appreciated
