Pros

Autonomy. Able to do things your own way. Little to no supervision provided. If your work aligns with Caber's flavour of the day, you could be a lifer.

Cons

Management is junior and inexperienced. No strong leadership to drive company culture. Lacks mentorship. Lacks cohesion. No concept of team.
