Pros

- Decent compensation - Free breakfast and lunch - Pretty decent teammates who carry their own weight and are open to sharing what they know

Cons

- High pressure to perform to a certain framework they're looking for, if you're a fit, it's great, otherwise it might not work out - Results driven, effort is not rewarded if your project ends up getting shelved
