Pros

From a designer perspective, it's an environment where design has a strong voice, you don't have to fight for it as other tech companies. Flexible work hours, working from home, distance. Fancy and nicely located offices

Cons

No trajectory for career growth, especially if you are an individual contributor. Hard to output portfolio ready projects with too often changing directions. Distributed teams, clashing agendas, black box decision making.
