Pros: Good WLB - Depends on manager. Ok pay compared to same-level companies (not FAANG or MULTB level). Good tech stack. Flexible leaves.

Cons: Not a lot of time for career development or learning something new, which depends on the manager. I had a completely opposite experience with a different manager. Management makes most of the decisions. Lot of management and team reshuffle.
