Pros

Opportunity, Autonomy and the best work culture you will ever find. There isn't a place in this country which will treat you like an entreprenuer and not micro manage you. The crowd is fantastic, the management is friendly, the work culture is liberal and all they ask for is professionalism. And best of all, everyone is connected by one common denominator - Passion for SPORT.

Cons

Demanding environment which makes you work hard, but rewards well

You perform well, you will reap the benefits of your labour - Best part: zig-zag growth. You need not venture out to seek a different role say you want to explore opportunities in another domain. Of course, movement will be validated if you have proved your mettle

Cons

- Working 6 days a week sometimes, takes a toll on you
