Pros

Ability to engage with interesting US and Swiss partners, self-identified projects, lots of opportunities to network, very unusual work experience that stands out in a resume, lots of visibility. This is not a long-term job but is a great stepping stone for a lot of different career moves, especially if you are someone who likes to meet new people.

Cons

Low wages and no room for advancement, many evening events (pre-Covid), doesn't follow US/Massachusetts labor laws or withhold US taxes so quite tricky for US citizens, mostly early career individuals (including the CEO) so leadership is shaky, lots of turnover, questionable Covid policies, exposure to a lot of sexism and ageism from Switzerland (old boys club feel).
