Pros

The pay is comparably high in most countries. The market is (almost) not regulated at all. Logistics is trivial: You can ship your product(s) over the Internet

Cons

You will notice slight, yet annoying discomfort from small things, like typing. Buy a better keyboard :) Get something mechanical, but not too clicky or your co-workers will plan some elaborate demise for you

Pros

Really smart people, a lot of opportunity for growth, always encouraged to be innovative, think big, and create something new. Competitive salary and benefits with other major tech companies. 100% self motivating work environment. No dress code and 4 legged friends are welcome.

Cons

You have to be self motivated. NO ONE will hold your hand and tell you that you're doing a great job. If you need constant affirmations from management, this company isn't for you.
