      Pros

      Every employee is valuable and must pull their weight, so you won't get stuck on some small project no one cares about. Overall if you are a self-starter, you will quickly be given responsibilities and become a vital part of the team.

      Cons

      Communication from senior leadership is often very poor, but the lower level managers typically do a good job to make up for this.

      Pros

      Employees are largely able to shape their own role and future in the company. There are opportunities for lateral transfer and upward mobility (to the extent that is possible with a flat org structure). I get to use my strengths and develop my weaknesses into new strengths.

      Cons

      Management scrutiny of projects is not always proportional to the importance of the project, and there is an emotional component to some of the decision making that leads to inconsistency especially with regard to spending. This can be annoying but is usually overcome with additional discussion.
