Pros

I can not think of any.

Cons

I was hired as a virtual employee, and then we were told to move to Washington, DC, or Seattle or quit. One of the 'Leadership Principles" is to earn trust.

Pros

Lot's of great tech to learn and use. Access to tons of tools and training. Tons of smart people to work with.

Cons

Your experience totally depends on your manager. There is a lot of churn and you can have a good manager and suddenly end up with a terrible manager.... and it seems the good managers don't last very long. Turn over is pretty high - about 1/2 of new hires are gone within a year. Culture is harsh leads people to look out for themselves - no career benefit for being a team player. Working remote you have a lot of flexibility - but you will put in long hours. Way too many peripheral, no-value-add, collateral activities.
