Pros

There is complete SW industry inside Amazon you can find to work on any SW subject you like. Very easy to switch teams. Good pay, especially when its stock performs. Work with smart and motivated people.

Cons

No extra perks of any kind other than max $100/year discount for shopping at Amazon.com. There are teams with bad work/life balance but there are plenty good/reasonable ones. Forced curve fitting of x% of people as LE (least Effective) and y% URA (un-regretted attrition rate) is a counter productive policy that should be abandoned. High attritions, internally, externally and URAs.
