      Pros

      best place for working, even if it is during a short period, you can really learn a lot, on a professional and personal point of view. it can open some doors if you would like to continue to work on a accelerator.

      Cons

      short term contract, when you start to be very efficient, you have to leave. very difficult to stay in the area.
