Pros

Incredibly talented group of people. Endless opportunities to learn and be exposed to new topics and approaches. Felt valued by the team I worked with.

Cons

Can be very political at times and experience depends on the team and people you work with. A lot of egos to manage as everyone comes from a place where they are used to running the show.
