Pros

1) Free time to learn new skills 2) Flexibility to choose projects under different teams

Cons

For EDG - 1) You need to engage in Customer support for at least a week per month - which is annoying as you have to pick cases that might be from areas that do not interest you 2) No cutting-edge work done in CS areas (in HYD office) 3) EDG managers are clueless about the technology domains 4) You will need to do non-sensical things like conduct workshops, fests and self-healing sessions (all in the name of "overall development") Do not get into EDG if you have a Masters in CS or related fields , it is a waste of time.
