Pros
- I've never been closer to the customer. Their experiences and pain points sharpen how I market, position, and personalise our offering
- For engineers: a rare chance to enhance performance and experience on a marketplace defining what "great" looks like, building trust with resellers globally
- No direct competitors means we can test, evolve, and iterate quickly without looking over our shoulder
- Ideas turn into shipped work fast, autonomy is real!
- Creative, rewarding, and never repetitive - no two weeks look the same
Cons
- It's not for everyone, you have to love rolling your sleeves up and diving in head first
- Ambiguity is constant - structure is something you help build
- The pace asks a lot of you, but gives a lot back
