Pros

If you trying to join as a contractor, there are no pros honestly. If FTE, it really depends on the team you're joining.

Cons

Most people in the company treat contractors different. They get overlooked, no 1:1s, no feedbacks, no patience or assistance to help them ramp up. And just get blindly fired if they're not having a "satisfactory" performance according to the manager (again, that doesn't even conduct 1:1s or provide feedbacks, not even giving a chance for the person to react).
