Pros
- Autonomy, encouragement to become a specialist in a given area and a wide berth to pick your preferred tool or technique so long as you can collaborate - Great team, culture is vibrant, fun, and you never feel like you're without support - Unique work, if you want exposure to all 360 degrees of technical marketing, events, evangelism etc. this is a much friendlier place to do it than at a traditional/big firm - Impressive skill and experience building, exposure to new tech, high-prestige client, C-level leadership which is priceless experience - Compassionate management, felt more like managers were invested in me to develop my talent and contributions rather than invested in my projects to conform my work to their expectations (i.e. micromanaging or by-the-book instructions)
Kontras
- Fast paced, if you're looking for an easy and super-predictable job there is less for you here as it rewards risk-takers and people willing to try new things. Clients can be great to work with and keep giving projects, or there may be a lot of different ones to acclimate to. - Small company, this may be a pro for some and con for others, but if you are looking for a corporate experience this will feel non-traditional
