Pros

Free doughnuts, free coffee, relaxed and easy job

Cons

Absolutely awful pay as you progress, egocentric senior managers with no people skills that expect the moon on a stick, no work/life balance, lack of consistency between managers, offers of promotion that become apparent they are not what you agreed to

Pros

nice people to work with, and of course, doughnuts

Cons

extremely understaffed and leadership refuses to backfill while increasing expectations of shrinking teams. long-term, this is not sustainable and people will continue to leave. internal data is a mess, no confidence in outputs and requires a ton of manual calculation
