Pros

-Some really sharp intelligent team mates; lots of good process, documentation and organisation in place (if not too much); expectations are clear, if unreasonable. -If you are too young to understand you are being exploited and too early in your career to stand up for yourself and push back against unreasonable demands, then you can 'have fun' working remotely with an international team and meet up in places like Barcelona.

Cons

-This is the most exploitative environment I have ever worked in. I felt dehumanised and treated like a machine. The excessive focus on extreme productivity in the product teams, combined with intrusive monitoring, means no one has time to think things through properly and very poor decisions get made. -Incompetent strategy, very inexperienced product managers and obscure decision making combined with a very inflexible and rigid approach to work process. Expected to work to incomprehensible slogans like "we need to get comfortable being uncomfortable". -Claims a flat structure but is authoritarian. There is a puritanical work ethic that leaves very little room for enjoyment of the job, so the work life balance is way off.
