Pros

Huge business impact Amazon data scientists work on real operational problems: delivery estimates, supply chain, pricing, recommendations, advertising, fraud, AWS, devices, and customer experience. Current Amazon DS postings mention predictive modeling, classification, feature engineering, experimentation, SQL, Python, ML evaluation, and translating business problems into metrics and models.

Cons

Data science may be more business analytics than research ML Some DS roles are highly ML-heavy, but others are closer to product analytics, experimentation, forecasting, dashboarding, SQL-heavy investigation, or decision support. You need to read the job description carefully.
