Cons
- Easy to over-extend yourself if you're passionate about helping the company.
- Experimental culture and not afraid to take risks so some processes are a bit more abstract and not as defined as they would be at larger companies.
- Firm learning curve if you're new to the industry.
- Since it's a smaller company, there's not as much flexibility around educational diversity because training programs aren't fully established.
