I came from React. Angular is a much more complex and strict tool, but with that comes more power (build-in functionality): It's a framework not just a view layer. So it takes more time to learn, but with React you need to first choose, then learn Router, http, ... as well.

Now, it all depends what you prefer / what's good for you. For me it was a huge productivity boost to switch to Angular because they just tell me how to do things. I don't spend much time on thinking how to architecture or about which library to choose (e.g. MobX vs. Redux), I just do it. With WebStorm it's two clicks to get a component / service / etc. scaffolded. That is pretty much the fasted it can get. Once you know Angular, you can develop really fast despite it's complexity.

But that's really a personal choice. If you need structure and tend to get lost in decision making, give Angular a try.

For the same reasons I'd choose for larger teams.
