Pros

Great opportunities to implement ideas and to prove yourself. Easy access to resources and people. People are willing to help you be successful.

Cons

You may have to work longer hours than desired at times. The company loses a lot of talent because of work hours. It can be a challenge to keep a family/work balance.

Pros

-You can have a lot of responsibility early on, everyone has an influence on projects -Good pay -Fast-paced, growing environment with a lot of opportunities -Challenging work -Movement between departments is encouraged

Cons

-Very decentralized so there is little information sharing between groups -Individualist environment - since they run lean, you are typically working by yourself on projects -Long hours - poor work/life balance -Your experience is very dependent on your manager, and because the company is growing so quickly, there are many managers who haven't received the training or support on how to be a good manager
