Pros

Employee development, flexible scheduling and the best part of it is being remote for this position. Removes a lot of the stress of waking up early in the morning and dealing with traffic. Great work life balance!

Cons

I haven't been here long enough to point out cons. I think for someone who's unfamiliar with tech equipment and working remote, they can easily encounter problems that require an expertise.
