Pros

Good compensation. Tons of learning opportunities. It is one of the best places to learn how to build large scale systems.

Cons

Depending on your team, you might be constantly dealing with legacy software. Sometimes it is harder to manage (interpersonal and technical) dependencies than writing code. Competition can be somewhat stressful if you are not in the right mindset, not for everyone. But I think it is worth the experience.
