Pros

. Want people to have a life beyond work and allow you to balance your work load; . Give people and teams autonomy to make decisions and allow them to learn from mistakes. . Excellent pay and benefits (salary, bonus, car, health / life insurances..)

Cons

You can get overwhelmed by the amount of training / internal meetings you get pulled in to; Company is still adjusting to new operational mode and organizational changes, so people are still figuring out their best approach to the new roles; It as a lot of solutions, services and products to offer but a somewhat disconnected value prop for customers - its changing but still a lot of work to do
