Pros

Good work-life balance, unlimited PTO, great colleagues (although more are resigning and the company is not hiring fast enough/at all to replace them).

Cons

I joined the company at a time when the team was growing rapidly and everyone was working hard and long hours to launch our product. During the hiring process I was promised good career progression, decent yearly increment, 2 months bonus, and 10-30% equity. In almost 2 years, none of that happened - no opportunities for promotion, no yearly increment AND bonus due to poor company performance, and no equity given. In countless town halls, the management team boasted about the market's keen interest in our company and product, and that we were making good progress in closing sales and generating revenue. It was later revealed that it was all a lie, and we barely closed any deals. This left everyone very blindsided and concerned about our future in this company. From then on, it was difficult to trust any news shared by the management team. With frequent restructuring (generally every quarter), which decimated most of the staff in the US, the remaining folks mostly in the Singapore office are still treated as "second class" - undervalued and under appreciated despite being the backbone of the company and building the product from ground zero. All this, together with an unattractive retention strategy only offered many months after the mass layoffs, are driving good people away.

Pros

Not very many but if I have to pick I'd say working in my pajamas and working with/learning from the little people actually doing the work.

Cons

Every.single.other.thing! The entire C-suite have outlandish expectations for everyone but themselves. They've lied so many times to clients that they have no clue what the truth is anymore. The CEO made countless claims the company was moving in a positive direction only to turn around and layoff 99% of the staff while placing all blaim on the board and saying it came out of no where(we know you're lying Ivan). He still won't face the staff remaining just sends his minions to give bad news or puts in on the project managers. If the investors truly want this platform to succeed they better get rid of the "captain" who's driving this sinking ship.
