Pros

This is a "get out of it what you put into it" opportunity. If you choose to be a good student and take the time to learn the business, the rewards are exceptional.

Cons

Unlike having accountability to an employer, it's necessary to develop the skill of self-discipline to succeed.

Pros

The people who are left are lovely

Cons

You are expected to perform outside your job description. Promotions are nearly impossible. Layoffs are now part of the culture. The "pink bubble" only applies to you when they need you. Once they declare you disposable, their attitude towards you drastically changes. When you get laid off, their package is pittance.
