Pros

* Very fast-paced organization with abundant growth opportunity. Within less time, one would get to work on interesting technology, which might not be possible in other organization. * Working with Smart people and on cool projects * Happy feeling a developer when the code he developed, serves millions of customers of amazon.com

Cons

All Developers are On-call on a weekly rotational basis, The person who is oncall is responsible for solving all critical issues on the go. For smaller teams, rotation frequency would be faster and very hectic.
