Pros

Benefits. Flexibility in terms of work location.

Cons

Toxic workplace. Office gossip run amuck, office politics takes centerstage and terribly poor leadership that is incapable of addressing the problem and promoting a good workplace culture. Leadership is shortsighted in terms of solving an immediate problem vs planning long term. Leadership can’t articulate roles/responsibilities for their team. Company is riddled with outdated processes and takes forever to get even a simple thing done.

Pros

They offer resources for learning.

Cons

In my previous roles I've never felt burnout but with this one is the first I was feeling crush. I don't think managers take time to structure the tasks on a 8hrs or 10hrs per day. There are a lot of unrealistic expectations, no work-life balance at all. Even if you made the sacrifice to stay late, you will not be done with the work for the day.
