It Is Stressful

Pros

Sooner more than less decent pay, smart team members, and some stock options.

Cons

They force you to participate in team members' reviews in terms of 'What are your and your team member's superpowers". Superpowers? Really? Am I 14 years old to believe in superpowers? 24x7 on-calls once in several weeks - will wake you up in the middle of the night.

Pros

Very flexible in work hours, no restrictions on what you are allowed to dabble in. Everyone is willing to help you achieve whatever goal you have.

Cons

Depending on where you work there may not be enough desks for you to work. we hot swap seats. Hard to get promoted. Compensation is different than working for govt contracting.
