Pros

As a small business, access to senior leadership is easy if you give all your time to the company. The salaries are robust, yet there is a cost to your personal life since they pay for your time 24/7.

Cons

There is no such thing as a 40 or 50-hour work week. Expect to work early mornings and late nights. Expect to work on weekends. Employees work so hard and are close with one another that there are many "Lighthouse couples", which normalizes incestuous activity across teams. Some of these relationships are ethical, but many are not which end up damaging personal lives. Management is aware of these couples and incestuous activity yet turns a blind eye to the problematic behavior.
