The good feeling to get things done.
They are motivated, highly qualified and yet easy to work with.
They are all highly skilled, and having different backgrounds, they provide extremely valuable insights.
We are encouraged to focus on quality, and to invest time into thinking things over.
AFAIK I don't have a compensation package when working as external contractor. I get my hourly wage and that's it.
The hierarchy is very flat and based on merit. Everyone has a chance to give their best and thrive

It's great to work with like-minded highly qualified people. It's very hands-off, which perfectly fits me being almost allergic to micro-management.
I think that I can provide deep technical insights, and I have experience in pre-sales and customer support which combined are worth more than the technical position I was initially hired for.
They are competent. Context: I've previously worked for family owned business, where you easily can find the son or daughter of the owner as your manager. Since they are family, your opinion (or even the facts) will count less, which is really frustrating.
