Pros

Buen ambiente laboral en general.

Cons

Expectativas/exigencias desproporcionadas respecto del sueldo y del periodo de adaptación para conocer todo el codebase, el negocio y las metodologías. Si entras desde practicante, sin mucho conocimiento de cómo se trabaja en la industria, lo tendrás más fácil para adaptarte a sus propias metodologías y aprender del negocio, en lugar de hacerlo en tiempo récord.
