Pros
A lot of work flexibility Interesting and complicated projects Overall great teammates Flexible schedule
Cons
Too much flexibility leads to a lack of focus Leaderships are often based on academic achievement. Meaning you're an automatic leader if you're a PhD. This often leads to inefficiency as many lack leadership experience. Some PhDs are also often very cocky know-it-all. You will need to learn how to maneuver politically to make sure that best things are done for the company, not for their "expert" preference. Don't expect work life balance in the next couple of years. The company is expanding rapidly and requires the best out of everyone, 24/7.
