Pros

Collaboration and learning opportunities are key points in my opinion. If you are a builder and wants to "play" with some really cool cloud tech and work with in projects that make a real impact, AWS is your place.

Cons

You need to manage your own work/life balance. Nobody will do it for you. Benefits like health insurance could be better

Pros

Ambitious projects if you're in the right team. Typically great team-mates. Don't believe the memes, the ppl are not back stabbing jerks but are overall genuinely nice. Not constrained by budgets when building cool things. Tools while sometimes clunky are powerful.

Cons

Schizophrenic lack of focus, entire teams get split, merged and upended multiple times a quarter. Some product managers are disconnected from reality. It didn't use to be the case, the PM-Ts were previously top notch. You're pushed to vibe code everything. Established products with loyal customers are getting neglected. Newer VP level leaders don't seem to know what they are doing. Veteran OG VP level leaders are either leaving in droves or seem stressed or checked out.
