Pros

Absolutely none!!!! This was, hands down, one of the most exhausting and demoralizing jobs I’ve ever had. Right from the 1st day, it was obvious that employees weren’t respected or valued. And don’t be fooled by the positive reviews!

Cons

The workload is completely unmanageable, bordering on abusive. Projects are piled on with no regard for capacity, planning, or impact. Managers are unqualified, disconnected, and incapable of providing even the most basic level of direction. There’s no feedback, no coaching, and no interest in your growth. When problems inevitably arise — often due to broken systems or internal dysfunction — they throw you under the bus rather than taking accountability. Leadership’s only consistency is in its failure to lead. No amount of effort is ever enough. You can bleed for this place — sacrifice your time, health, and well-being — and you’ll be met with cold indifference, or worse, manufactured write-ups meant to force you out.

Pros

They hire amazing people Reputable reputation for a resume Meaningful work WFH annual stipend ($600)

Cons

“Be Frugal” is a company value and trust me it shows. (Salary, travel, software, etc.) They have no shame in the fact that they prioritize Company revenue over employee health. When rolling out new products employees are expected to absorb the extra bandwidth and not complain about it when things go operationally wrong and it has an adverse effect on the employee. They are expected to ignore it and continue to absorb the work. They continue to hire externally for talent rather than developing internally. They have zero resources for developing employees. If you want to succeed in this company, you need to figure out how to develop yourself. They are not transparent with the fact that they expect you to work more than 40 hours a week. There are occasional folks who can manage the workload in 40 hours, but that’s not the norm.
