Pros

Paymaster. Will work with bright minds. Good product

Cons

Management of the Aurora Postgres engine, isn't that great. Managers change frequently. 3 mangers changed in 2 years. Definite guidance is missing. Many founding team members have moved to different teams and companies. Very bad work life balance and hectic on-call.
