Pros

Some really challenging work with really good salary. They pay more than the market. Chaps working around are really tech sound and usually helping but that may vary from team to team.

Cons

Technically you are hired to work 24 hours. And no one will like to work like that for any incentive. Their oncall make you feel like machines who are dead inside.
