Pros
Benefits like different type of annual leaves
Cons
Too many group chat over small things: Be prepared to either mute all the group chat on your off days OR let it be and people will still look for you. MC, Leave, off-in-lieu etc. just be prepared Pointless monthly meeting when it could be just an email: It will be the same topic again and again. Your ideas mean little to nothing. Expecting a Bugatti out of a bicycle: Yes, and you have to sell it as a Bugatti. As long it works, it works. You will be thrown under the bus over and over again: No matter how much you accomplish for the company or department, no matter how much you have generated, all it takes is just one mistake and youre "marked". You want to complain to HR? No use. Your boss are best friends with HR. What goes up must come down. Need to talk to someone? Go ahead but be just be careful, the walls have eyes and ears.
