Pros

- Autonomy - Exceptionally talented designers

Cons

- Lack of strong (any?) management - those seeking the opportunity to learn from others and develop should look elsewhere - Personal relationships (several couples) in a small office leads to favoritism - Poor internal company culture - Dissatisfied clients - Poor workflow management which leads to extremely late nights and weekend work - Random changes to people's titles - Doesn't help people develop, if they don't like something they may fire them with no notice, and often, no severance - No retirement plan - Outrageously expensive healthcare plans - No commuter benefits - only 10 days PTO and very limited holidays

Pros

Nice colleagues, overall positive environment with flexibility, and a good opportunity to work on several different project types. Great place to build up experience and also learn new skills/drive your professional growth if you are willing to take the initiative.

Cons

As a smaller organization, the other side of flexibility is a bit of a lack of an overarching formal structure. It can be easy to fall into routine and there's not always a clear development path if you don't advocate for yourself.
