Pros

Very smart group. You'll learn a lot and also contribute/teach plenty.

Cons

Worklife balance sucks especially if you're in an operational heavy team, Project deadlines are unreal. Can be very disorganized at times. Tons of Egos but that's just the IT field in general. AWS struggles to understand what it means to be a sysEng. It seems their idea of sysEng tasks are whatever the devs cannot get to at the moment (this does not hold true for every team to be fair).

Pros

Small and very dynamic teams. Teams can have really good independence. Ability to control your own destiny (most of the time).

Cons

If you want to leave your mark, you'll have to sacrifice personal time. Not much time to work on "cool stuff" as there's always something to 'scale'.
