Pros

Honestly nothing. Other companies can offer way more for far less stress.

Cons

ALL 4-5 star reviews are fake or bought. Do not trust them! You will see a bad review and then a few good reviews right after that to compensate for the negative one. - Insane amount of micromanaging - No trust in employees - There is an 'Inner Circle - High levels of stress, especially for huge updates - Overtime expected without compensation - Almost no work-life balance - Compensation is abysmal compared to other companies

Pros

Code moves to production without delay, so you quickly see the results of your work. The team has people from all kinds of backgrounds, and everyone's happy to review ideas and offer input. You can manage your time and choose your approach to work without unnecessary interference from supervisors. The salary is competitive.

Cons

Decisions are rarely final, so you have to be adaptable.

Pros

- No burnout (the pace is reasonable) - When I clock off, I’m really off (no work stuff follows me home) - People enjoy working together, they're not forced to - I can have honest conversations with managers

Cons

Some of the tools need upgrading.
