Pros

Independence of thought was encouraged. I had the freedom to set my own research agenda. Some coworkers had been there for a long time (decades) and were very knowledgeable about the product and its history.

Cons

Culture was lacking. Could have been partly due to covid and remote work, but I suspect there would be issues with on-site as well (perhaps it would have been worse). Lack of clear direction on path forward for flagship/legacy products.

Pros

I was "let go" from the company more than a year and this was the greatest pro that ever happened to me. Currently work in a company that actually trains their new hires and treats you like a worker.

Cons

As a stock market trainee, you won't be trained at all. They don't care how you get your numbers - just get it done. A speck above minimal wage starting out way below industry level even for an entry-level job. Their retention rate is very low. They hire and fire a lot at the end of the fiscal year.
