      Pros

      There’s a bunch of new stuff happening, especially with AI — you can kinda tell CFS is into it. There’s heaps of things to join in, like groups and activities, especially for younger people. So yeah, lots going on.

      Cons

      Role can sometimes be demanding with longer hours than usual outside of your 9-5
