Pros: Some teams have a good quality of work, but now mostly the work has degraded.

Cons: - Too many ad-hoc tasks with tight deadlines. - On-call load. - Delayed promotion.

Pros: Great learning curve with exceptional people around.

Cons: Work-life balance is not good. On-call sucks.

Pros: Good compensation as per industry standards.

Cons: 1. Lot of toxic teams with a high focus on deliverables and no regard for personal time and employee's health (not worth the pay). 2. After a certain time, you will be stuck using similar tools to solve that particular business problem, as they have a predefined scale which requires a certain suite of tools. Once you learn all of it, growth is limited in that team. 3. Always go for a team which generates revenue, or else you'll be stuck in a team that is struggling to get sponsored and justify its size to leadership. This means they only care about things moving fast to prod and not about team bonding, employee mental health care, or the learnings of the org.
