Pros

Learning new technologies, working with great people.

Cons

Most people leaving within 3-5 years is a problem due to the notorious salary Cliff. Only a very few people can keep its salary growing after 4 years. The stack ranking is also notorious. Even if you are EHB, you will still feel the pressure to earn EHB forever to avoid the salary cliff.
