Anyway a game gets only better when reaching endgame stuff gets harder which means more rewarding at the end.
with regards to the bolded part, no (or actually, it depends). Note that units will decrease some stats on AW-ing, but some abilities like +7% archer attack (Spica) and increase def buff (Deine) may offset it.
like buttlover and kotono said, there are 2 Awakenings. I prefer to call them Unit Awakening and Skill Awakening.
Unit Awakening = unlock/upgrade unit ability + decrease some stats but increasing max stats (AW20~30 to reach 50cc60 stats I believe)

Skill Awakening = upgraded skill. you can ignore this portion entirely for now, we will not expect to get it within a year from now.
