Pros

fast learning curve, interesting projects, trust from superiors, team, flexible working time, chances of development and growth, start up culture, fast decisions

Cons

nothing to say here. i don't measure people against perfection as humans cant be perfect. everybody works hard to improve and owns up to their mistakes. i feel appreciated and trusted.

Pros

1. The sky is the limit, as a young ambitious and hungry PM you can easily move through the company and leave your print. 2. Overall friendly environment and flexible nature

Cons

1. Not yet fully a meritocracy, age and Zalando years still play an important role in relative compensation and level 2. Lacking real Product Leaders, the management are all former consultants. 3.

Exciting but also frustrating

Pros

Good work-life balance; high flexibility in the choice of technologies; open-minded and dynamic environment; plenty of opportunities to innovate and change the game.

Cons

Product owners/team leads are often inadequate to their role: they lack experience and knowledge. They act more like "the boss" and less like "the leader". If you have very advanced skills and high-level experience, it can be frustrating to interact with managers who just don't understand how things work, and you might end up spending your time to fix their mistakes rather than contirbuting to the business.
