Pros

Increase your core engineering competencies. Some smart people as well as many average people. There is worse if you a desperate for a job.

Cons

Most people leave within a year - a brutal workplace, people are generally unhappy. Oncall (unpaid overtime) and a lot of the work is operational - not particularly interesting projects. Very difficult to make suggestions or improvements. You are expected to do a small tasks handed down by managers and no excuses for delays for any reason. Creative thinking is not welcomed at Amazon.
