Pros

Flexible working hours that allowed me to balance personal and professional life. Open communication and respectful attitude from the team. Projects were engaging and allowed for creative input. Fair and timely payments. Gained valuable experience in UX/UI design through real tasks.

Cons

No long-term stability or benefits like full-time roles. Communication could sometimes be slow due to time zone differences. Limited opportunities for professional development within the company. Onboarding process was a bit unclear at first. Fewer feedback sessions than I’d prefer.

Needs a reality check

Pros

- Free food - Autonomy - Great place to learn

Cons

- Everything is expected of you but resources are so limited - Upper management needs to do a reality check when they all want everything at the same time: speed, quality, revenue but with very little resources EVERYONE IS SO STRETCHED. We're all just pretending things will pan out right but we're not actually getting realistic support in getting things done. People are scared to speak up because there's only 1 correct answer.
