Pros

Opportunity to work autonomously, flexible working schedule/location freedom; good opportunities for newcomer to the industry to learn; lots of smart people

Cons

You will be overworked and likely underpaid; leadership in the West is similar to high school politics (you've got the "in" crowd, the "out" crowd); company doesn't value their smartest analysts; lack of opportunity to work on different solutions - you will do the same thing over and over again; no formal training currently in place - so its sink or swim; people are dropping like flies due to the resourcing issues - leadership literally can't hire people fast enough to replace the ones that are leaving.

Pros

None. Literally none. Amazing that I cannot think of a single thing. I’m staying because the job market is awful otherwise I am out of here.

Cons

- carousel of management. Changing every several months - constant reorganization, hired for a role you want then moved to a role without input as a part of a reorganization - employees of set up to fail - management is suspect in their talent and ability to build a culture worth having - trying to “scale” products without a client first mentality - profits over people - legacy remote work allows people to skate by without actually doing work - history of hiring suspect CEOs because of nepotism - people get paid obscene amounts for doing little work. And if they do work, it is so awful.
