Pros

Flexible hours, relatively good pay for the position that it is, lots of AI automations so you are doing very little unnecessary work.

Cons

No feedback to ways of working is given from managers but it's visible that you are being watched and measured by your stats only, they ask for honest feedback and what can be improved but largely turn down/ dismiss suggestions, micromanagement, intransparent communication around everything (long-term planning, short-term ad hoc decisions). Huge changes occur all the time without explanation with the expectation that this is just to be accepted. You are being told the bare minimum of what's necessary for you to know and no bit more than that. This leads to constant anxiety and constantly pending job insecurity. They really make you feel how replaceable you are to them. Zero small talk in meetings, no praise or "well done" ever just additional pressure on getting stats up, no feeling of project team belonging is fostered and they'd prefer for everyone to work with as little communication with others as somehow possible. By far the most human-unfriendly and horrific work culture I've ever experienced.

Cutthroat, very liberal value system company wide, very DEI focused. Pay is very low and the benefits are the main reason to stay.
