Pros

I was in Seattle, it was a very good experience for interns here. I was in a department has very good work life balance. My teammates most of the time works 8 hours everyday and we had a lot of recreational activities after work. I went to watch a base ball with my mentor played some board game at my managers house etc, etc. There might be someone saying that Amazon is a terrible company to work at, I will not deny that some team has terrible work-life balance, but at least the team I worked at is not one of that kind.

Cons

No, nothing during my intern.
