      Pros

      Comfy environment with slow pace. Can learn a lot if willing to. No strict working hours. A lot of smart people you can learn from.

      Cons

      The slow pace can make you lazy and you can actually start rotting there. Need to stay sharp and don't let the lack of discipline to lower your standards.
