Pros

Opportunity to work on cutting-edge tech. Working alongside smart people is always exciting. There are a lot of good internal resources to help you grow.

Cons

Compensation is not the best compared to the amount of effort one puts in. The culture may not be great, and work prioritization is more promotion-driven than customer-obsessed. Long-timers get preference over the best performers on the team. Your managers may not appreciate you challenging anything they say, and that will surely damage your chances of promotion.
