Pros

Home Office Training Individual growth Brand will add value to resume\ Ethics (Though getting diluted at times)

Cons

No bonding with colleagues, communicates to H.O and may hinder growth opportunities, Performance appraisal is Objective based, but in reality - it is just a gimmick. Home office (Need support from family to manage office at home) No open culture - Politics prevails across. They call it delegation - Supervisor dumps his work and proclaim "Delegation"
