Pros

Good work life balance, work pressure is less. Some of the perks given are good, but these are fast vanishing with time.

Cons

No job security. You are forced to look for a new team to keep your job every 6 months. You will go nowhere in your career. Too slow to react to changes. Many people doing the same thing without knowledge of what is happening in the other parts of the organistation.
