Pros

Younger workforce so is good place to feel part of team

Cons

Managers not suited to roles, poor remuneration and nil work life balance despite them having a policy. The nuc is really bad with high turnover and excessive work volume. It is a sink or swim environment. Ineffective managers who would stab you in the back to make themselves look good. Definitely not the place to go, its just not worth it. The list of cons could go on and on.

Pros

Business side is smart and is superb at their product

Cons

The IT organization struggles with structural challenges that impact efficiency. The offshore-heavy model in India means US-based employees regularly work early hours to stay aligned, which is unsustainable long-term. The workforce is heavily weighted toward a high-headcount service model rather than investing in strong engineering talent — you need fewer, better engineers, not more bodies. Central tech functions are attempting to build platforms, but without a clear shared understanding of what a platform actually means, these initiatives remain incomplete. The result is heavy manual workarounds propping up half-finished solutions. Strategic direction shifts frequently, and ongoing layoff announcements make it difficult to plan or build momentum.
