Business Outlook

Pros

- Salary - Free food - Can work from home anytime, no penalty - Smart and fun team, quick hard-skill growth - Lot of open-ended problems, lot of low hanging fruits, lot of possibilities (you just don't see it from outside) - No such thing as under-utilized/over-qualified for a job. When you stuck in that situation, you are not challenging yourself enough

Cons

- tax :'( (well it's everybody's problem. But I heard some startup give you salary; tax-less) - got some problem with HR regarding compensation. But it was my mistake for being too late.
