Pros

The insights are interesting, people are generally nice, managers are trying and understanding, and good work life balance.

Cons

Many things others have said: - Low salary and little opportunities to grow. Quickly became uninspired to work there. - If you're on a lower skale you don't get any proper benefits (health insurance, travel, etc), which makes no sense, lower skale should be given some kind of compensation for their low salaries... - Stuck with legacy systems and legacy way of working - Hard to improve things as lots of hierarchy - Leadership say they're happy for change and improvement but when it comes down to it it doesn't feel like they are and things moved very very slowly - Office location - Micromanagement - Poor communication throughout - Untrained staff being given work they don't have experience in at times, it was way of cutting costs instead of hiring someone with relevant experience which just added extra time and work trying to make them understand a role they weren't hired to do. Many times we were juggling different roles instead of having the right staff - Some coworkers played the blame game quite a bit rather than taking ownership, even for the smallest things, making it a difficult culture to work in. There was at times lack of basic business etiquette

Pros

None. Literally none. Amazing that I cannot think of a single thing. I’m staying because the job market is awful otherwise I am out of here.

Cons

- carousel of management. Changing every several months - constant reorganization, hired for a role you want then moved to a role without input as a part of a reorganization - employees of set up to fail - management is suspect in their talent and ability to build a culture worth having - trying to “scale” products without a client first mentality - profits over people - legacy remote work allows people to skate by without actually doing work - history of hiring suspect CEOs because of nepotism - people get paid obscene amounts for doing little work. And if they do work, it is so awful.
