Pros

I have a huge amount of flexibility in my work day. I get a lot of freedom to approach solving problems, which helps me grow as an engineer.

Cons

The company is growing fast (which is a pro or con depending on how you look at it). The logistics of work change a little as we grow, which is a con for me, but not huge and its getting better.
