Pros

Amazon has high hiring standards. I worked with people I respected and admired. Amazon people said what was on their mind. A great example was the quarterly all hands meeting. For an hour or more at the end of the meeting, senior managers would take questions from any employee on any subject: from the company's business strategy to its work environment to its food.

Cons

High turnover. Inexperienced management. Not a lot of communication from managers. Get used to hearing about major re-orgs over e-mail.
