Pros
If you consider working with big brands a plus. Allows remote work and a reasonable compensation.
Cons
The company used to hold its values dear. There are sessions called all hands where people were allowed to ask questions. After a slew of redundancies, people stopped asking questions and all hands recordings were edited just to keep the pleasant parts. That says a lot about the shift in culture after the change in management. The current management simply ignores any feedback from the employees. Due to their "less profits" the company decided to "cut costs". They removed several people over the course of few months. With every round of redundancies, they would come and promise about not having more. But redundancies just continued. Even people who were loyal and stayed there for 8 years were not spared. Perks were cut down e.g. We used to have lunches on Wednesdays. It was not a fancy lunch and wouldn't have costed more than 15$ a head. It did motivate a lot of remote workers to socialise with their office based team mates. Not sure what they achieved by cutting down a perk that would've costed them no more than 600$ a week. HR are for most part clueless and have just learned wiki pages written by others. They don't even have empathy for their fellow employees. The biggest reason profit came down for Bulletproof was the callous behaviour of senior people in the company. Over hiring , and over investing in ideas. There was a project that was developed for 3 years and then scrapped abruptly because they couldn't justify the cost. Reason ? Poor management of goals of the project, managers trying to control the architecture and senior developers learning new technologies under the guise of building an innovative product. Those people eventually left the company, leaving it cash dry. If you're on a client project, the architect and project manager just give in to whatever clients have to say. There are no controlled timelines, no cost calculation, no real estimations , no risk analysis, and engineering team takes all the fall for everything despite being called at odd hours by the client directly on the cellphone.
