Pros

Encourages work/life balance; improved benefits; talented employees to learn from and work with

Cons

Workload is unpredictable; no long term outlook; more conservative in taking risks; lack of training / personal development and constant hiring from outside contractors instead of promoting/developing existing talent makes one feel stagnant; work culture is more conservative and there aren’t a lot of team bonding or fun activities; no incentives
