      Pros

      Good place to start. Friendly environment. Smart colleagues. Make a change to the policy making.

      Cons

      Below market pay. Different teams have totally different styles. Some teams have no such thing as work life balance. Their turn over rate is incredibly high, since their hourly salary is incredibly low.

      Pros

      - The work is intellectually engaging and gave me many chances to grow technically. - I learned a lot from talented coworkers and appreciated being part of projects with real-world relevance. - There was also good exposure to translating technical work into clear, usable takeaways.

      Cons

      - The work can be intense and detail-heavy, and deadlines can sometimes feel demanding. - Priorities may shift quickly, which can make it hard to plan ahead. - At times, the volume of revisions and fast pace can be stressful.
