Pros

The organization works like a startup, innovation and creativity is high.

Cons

There's chaos and a lot of grey areas, you're expected to build processes and document them which isn't bad. But afterwards you're told your work is now BAU and therefore you don't deserve a promotion, meanwhile you didn't get promoted for all the previous hard work. My heart breaks for all the immigrants who were told that GC filing is from day one. Don't believe it, here it takes 10-12 months for the attorney to complete your JD alone. It's like there's an agreement with the attorneys to lengthen the process unnecessarily. 2 and half years later you still won't have your papers. Be wise folks! Don't fall for this crap.
