Pros

Great Team Great Extended Team that are always willing to help Good benefits Opportunity to get involved in lots of things that are not your remit - keep saying yes Strong alignment to values and culture.

Cons

Change takes hard work - be prepared to work hard; it is rewarding but can be tiring Executing the vision is sometimes harder than articulating the vision. So be prepared to explain things more than once.
