Pros

- Lots of vacation time - Opportunity to work flexible hours/work from home - Autonomy to work towards goals in the way that you see makes the most sense

Cons

- Managers that are young/inexperienced and have not been adequately trained as managers - Very low salary (that you're made to feel guilty for pointing out/asking for a raise) - 'Cult like' culture - no outlet for/appreciation of constructive dissent - you're either naively on board with every decision that's made or you're seen as not being a team player
