Pros

remote work, coworkers are very knowledgeble, could cover some certs.

Cons

management is completely incompetent, barely knows what security is, one of the types 'talk 60 min and said nothing'. workspace became very toxic due to micromanagement which affected overall team mood. They will literally try to pay you lower salary that listed on the JD.
