Pros

Team and people were great, providing a good support network and lots of opportunities to learn. Projects were designed to help the company and join full-fledged production code, not be thrown away.

Cons

Your team selection is completely at the behest of Amazon and will not be decided until after you have committed to the internship. Outside work policy is excessively restrictive and might turn people off to company. Don't plan on working on any project for personal development or profit while at Amazon.
