Pros

Amazon experience is said to valued a lot in other companies.

Cons

I was hired as an SDE and a week before joining, my future manager contacted me. When I joined my manager tells me that you would be working as an SDET. My manager has been asking me to write automation test cases which is not what an SDE is looking for. As many people I had multiple offers and I selected Amazon just because of its name and they completely screwed me over. I would advise any SDE to ask beforehand what he would be working on. I had asked my manager to switch my role to SDE. Now that manager has left Amazon and I have to go through the whole process again with the new-makeshift manager from another team.
