Pros
Experience Density: You’ll be exposed to a massive volume of projects in a very short time. Comp & Benefits: The financial upside and "experience per hour" are significant. Early Career Launchpad: Good for those who want to build a resume quickly and don't mind a lack of structure.
Cons
The "Start-Stop" Cycle: Initiatives are launched and killed so rapidly that meaningful progress is rare. It’s common to see 10+ initiatives die before they ever have a chance to impact the business. Cultural Exhaustion: The constant pivots aren't just inefficient; they’re draining. No one knows what’s next, which leaves the team feeling frustrated and perpetually "on edge." Leadership & Agency: Executive leadership changes constantly because senior talent isn't given the agency to lead. Most decisions are reactive—driven by CEO anxiety rather than a stable product roadmap. Technical Debt: You’ll build on "rotten" infrastructure where speed is the only metric that matters, leading to a "hope-based" data strategy.
