Pros

Good place to learn cloud practices and familiarise with AWS offerings. Can be a good career starter. There are rockstar developers you can learn from if you are lucky to work with them.

Cons

Processes are very slow, a lot of work related to ops. And oncalls can be extremely painful. Very easy to burnout. Slow career progression, very high level of competition for meaningful work that impacts promotion.
