Pros

Casual environment/ dress code. Flexible working hours. Work-life balance can be achieved. Easy access to higher management and 1:1 regular interviews may be helpful to carry out career plan.

Cons

No clear visibility in career promotion/ advancement. It seems to be very random and depressing. Management decision-making process sometimes really unclear and depends on personal connections. For example, my offer was changed from contract to full-time without compensation advance. HR department told me it was a done deal and they did not even ask me about it.
