Pros
Amazon is a decent company to work for, if your intention is to get a foot in the door in tech. I have seen many people enter at low levels, including CS phone agents etc. who over the years get promoted up the ladder, some to senior levels. Amazon is a middle of the road employer, there are some benefits but not many, the pay is ok but not great. It's a great place to gain skills.
Cons
The problem with Amazon is that they don't want tenured staff, you'll hear the mantra 'it's always Day 1' all the time. They will underpay and overwork anyone with tenure. It's best to get knowledge/experience in Amazon and move to a better employer to build a real career.
