Pros

They work you hard, which occasionally leads to burnout, but the work tends to be quite interesting, which makes the whole process satisfying.

Cons

Minimal perks, frugal is an understatement, but occasionally it's to the point of penny pinching. Depending on your team, there may be as little as no team building type activities, though I've heard tales of other teams that do beer and boardgames and pizza quite frequently
