Pros

great processes yet entrepreneurial. very smart people and a great hiring filter. good brand name to have on resume. amazon also offers a lot of different areas where one can try their hand from web services to retail to the kindle platform.

Cons

sometimes frugality is taken too far. work life balance can be an issue. some of the practices like no powerpoints in meetings can be quirky when taken to the extreme

Pros

Really smart people, a lot of opportunity for growth, always encouraged to be innovative, think big, and create something new. Competitive salary and benefits with other major tech companies. 100% self motivating work environment. No dress code and 4 legged friends are welcome.

Cons

You have to be self motivated. NO ONE will hold your hand and tell you that you're doing a great job. If you need constant affirmations from management, this company isn't for you.
