Pros
Work remotely Easy - behind appearances of complexity, you mainly deal with customers with very small business, nothing strategic or technical, and you can easily share the same answers from documentation to address any questions - objectives and KPIs are totally disconnected from actual value you deliver so simple and superficials activities make you look productive and having an impact on the dashboards, while you just have a few meaningless conversations about the weather with some contacts - Company makes money, payments, good product, market fit
Kontras
- None if your goal in life is hiding a lack of actual skills and personality, and you want to save appearances in society by pretending you do something complex and throw some buzzwords like "tech companies/fintech / Payments." - If you are a doer, like to solve problems, improve things, forget about it. Everything here is public contest to whome is going to be the best at being the most visible and loud on slack channels where throwing empty messages and announcements totally disconnected from any some sort of impact you might have - Everyone seems to be aware they can be replaced and outperformed by any mid LLM and they overcompensate by turning any 5-minute coffee break into life-changing events that illuminate and worthed sharing on Slack, linkedin, emails. - Static and fake smile, small activities, slack messages full of buzzwords such as "excited", "empowered", "adventure", "milestones" are mandatory - even though you just updated a Google Doc with a new title - Political-only promotions are required as actual professional impacts are not reflected - All the people that are supposed to solve actual problems for customers such as product improvements, features, implementation, are creating artifical and uneccessary workflows so any requests would be clarified 10 times, drowned into 9 documents are debriefed during as many meetings where ultimately, would be rejected cause of "bandwith" limitations.
