Pros

- Work remotely - Opportunity to travel - Attractive industry and space

Cons

- Very Swiss centric - No operational leadership - No clear boundaries between teams and lots of in-fighting - Very poor pay - Managers don't have skills or experience to lead and nurture teams - No implementation plan - too much focus on vision / strategy - Lack of experienced individuals - Producing tech to compete with community projects - C-suite in ivory towers, rarely speak to lowly doers in the teams - No commercial awareness for doing deal-making to really support projects in Cardano - Very political relationship between other Cardano entities (Input Output and Emurgo)

Pros

Decent pay, remote, low expectations. Good on resume, and exposure to Blockchain. It has promise, but many things have to change.

Cons

Most of the folks seem to not understand what they should be doing and/or blindly follow IOHK's lead. You might sit and do nothing for months without getting feedback regarding what you should be doing.
