Pros

- Very high product exposure across core, high-impact flows - Direct access to leadership with minimal hierarchy barriers - Designers are trusted with meaningful ownership early on - Fast execution cycle, ideas can move quickly into production - Strong collaboration across product, design, and engineering

Cons

- Too many “yes” decisions, weak pushback on low-impact requests - Lack of a strong product gatekeeper to filter stakeholder demands - Frequent context switching due to incoming ad hoc requests - Prioritization can feel reactive instead of strategic - Limited focus time for deep thinking and craft quality
