Pros

Flex and the ability to work hybrid

Cons

The hybrid is also a con, I understand the company's intention to force collaboration but when there are no company events, and all of the work is on computers its hard to defend the collaboration argument. There are other models we could use that other companies do such as a town hall once a year central to your country. Which would allow for collaboration for folks to chat and get to know one another.
