Pros
Focus on data science in healthcare and life science area. Comprehensive onboarding, consisting of several 1-1 onboarding sessions on work processes, development (career paths, development opportunities, internal and external trainings) and team culture, a simulated data science project, several introductory rounds with my first project lead, and a conversation with the company founder about the company's strategy and direction Full involvement in projects soo after onboarding Very dedicated, open and competent team What also excited me after my experience in a large consulting company was the lack of bureaucracy: For example, I can order technical equipment or software on my own without having to present 3 offers or submit a request to someone.
Cons
Relatively small company (at the moment), so sometimes there are tasks that are not in one's own core area of expertise.
