Pros

Space is great, work is dynamic, fast pace and often fun. Dog friendly. If you don't get overly invested it's a "great for now" job, but most team members get overly invested because the promises sound sweet.

Cons

they will take everything you can possibly give them but to discuss fair wages is a joke. They want to keep you as cheap as possible for as long as possible and management is easily threatened by ambition (aka wanting to make a living)
