Cons
Any challenges are largely typical of working at any start-up or venture backed company where there will always be pressure to balance the need to hit quarterly ARR targets with long term goals. Also, you'll need to adapt your approach for different personalities and deal with strong and sometimes conflicting options, opinions and strategies (again, typical for a start-up). Further, as you're building out processes and things from scratch you need to rely on your own initiative, creativity and ability to learn, roll up your sleeves and get things done. This is a pro or con depending on what you're looking for. For a person who is looking for growth and true learning, with an entrepreneurial inclination... this is definitely a pro.
