Cons
- Lack of feedback from mentor/coach - Hard to see what’s going on across the business as it’s getting very big and growing very fast - No real structure in place so I don’t know how to progress further in my career or how I’m currently tracking - There’s so many new people it’s sometimes hard to keep up - It feels like the tenured people have more “status” because they’ve been here for longer
