Pros

Stocks are doing great Kitchen stocked up with snacks once in 2 weeks I guess Benefits are good

Cons

Used to be a great company. Work culture is very bad. Management grows worse day by day. Setting unachievable goals and forcing employees to show up on weekends and holidays for the sake of showing up but not really concerned about people being productive. Management does not hear you. Have never seen such a bad work culture in my prior experiences
