Pros
Learn how a very large web company works. Can get involved in the cutting edge of data center design.
Cons
Very high turnover and general dissatisfaction of employees with how the company treats them. Very little formal training and oversight. There will always be more work to do; you could work 60 or 80 hours per week, or more. Some people have done >100 hours for more than one consecutive week, and Amazon tries to push you to do so. Just hope that you are non-exempt!
