Pros
Peepul took a chance on me without a conventional background in communications, and that bet went both ways; they gave me room to grow, and I delivered. Within a year, I went from figuring out the basics to genuinely contributing to the work. What I appreciated most was that once I proved myself, I was treated as a peer, not just a junior hire. The org rewards initiative and doesn't box you in by your job title. If you're willing to put in the work, there's real space to evolve fast.
Cons
The early months were tough. Without a traditional background, building credibility took time and deliberate effort. The org does hand-hold you for the initial phase but if you come in without domain experience, expect to earn your seat at the table rather than be given one.
