A whole team of people can be working flat out (including going to China) on a prototype build of your design, and you don't even know if it'll work.
There's not much work-life balance.
I commute 2 1/2 to 3 hours a day.
I've proven I can do the job - it would be nice (and more productive) if management were more open to my working from home.
