Pros

Executives listen to plans of employees, also gives chance to try and fail new programs. Mostly have full backing by the leadership, and give chance to grow within the org. Independent working in encourage. Approval’s are quick and straight forward. Leadership takes time to understand new programs

Cons

Actually I do not have a lot of cons, as working in non-American companies usually would be way worse than in Twitch.
