Pros

Tons of autonomy, high impact work, great coworkers, good work life balance.

Cons

There's not enough thought put into growing employees - everything is self-driven. E.g. no mentorship programs, recommended educational tools, or trusted development paths for analysts. Pay structure encourages coasting.
