All the teams are highly cross functional, so one can learn a lot outside his expertise area and also move around in different teams. Good place to start as fresh grad and get a good insight in the industry so later one can decide which focused field you want to pick.
Cons
Career growth is fully dependent on your reporting manager, If your manager doesn't support your growth then unfortunately you will be stuck in your place for a long time. Make sure you communicate to your manager about your expectation and your career plan.
