Pros

You can develop yourself to whatever you want to be. With the right team, you can excel and have a happy and balanced life.

Cons

Recent top down mandates countering previous agreements have caused a loss of employee trust and have shown a lack of trust for 2-pizza teams to self govern. With the wrong team, growth means increasing how much unfulfilling toil you can handle.
