Pros

Flexible WFH environment and mission-driven. Annual retreats were mostly fun.

Cons

Senior and mid-level management were ineffective leaders, gossipy, and had favorites. Senior Leaders had calendars booked for 100s of meetings and there were no rela opportunities for advancement because they wouldn't include others on think tank teams.
