Pros

For technical folks, you dive into developing narratives and selling stories. This is a vital skill in any field, profession, or industry.

Cons

The actual science, statistics, analysis, and research varies depending on who's leading the program. Watch out for the antagonism, contrarianism, pragmatism, bro culture, and all its armchair-expert fans who think they are objective/reasonable/rational/serious/apolitical/neutral/moderate and people who think being criticized from both sides is the right place to be (when criticism from both or all sides could also mean that you're really wrong)
