I've seen most of my pros and cons covered by others so I'll list my biggest con. CON: Too many startups want you to be there in person. YC actively discourages remote employees. This is 2018. Remote work is not only reasonable it's beneficial. As an employer you can get higher caliber employees for less money. As an employee you get far more freedom and don't have to live somewhere you don't like.
