Pros

The only good thing is that you met a lot of people and they made you feel part of a community

Cons

They overpromise, you work 12h a day, with not clear goals and projects come and go all the time. They fire people without any notice or justification. I was hired for a role that was not the one that they hired me, they asked me to do way over my pay rate and build a product from scratch which was not my job. At the end they tried to gave me a promotion but with the same salary and more responsibilities and they got offended when I declined the new position. Worst experience ever!! Worked there 3 months but felt like 2 years..

Pros

Good learning opportunity to develop, you just have to know when to leave

Cons

- low and inequitable salaries, you might have a coworker at the same level wining more than even someone more senior, they rather invest in new hires that to keep the older higher perfomers happy - Make no mistake you will be overworked, it's a must in the company specially in finance - They don't care for the financial team, they wont invest in it or give budget until everyone practicly leaves the company - At first it had a unlimited PTO policy but no one ever toke time off, you were expected to work even on your days off or in your local holiday's, they changed it eventually to 20 days a year but highly limited, with this change it doesn't matter if you quit or get fire the days you didn't used were not paid off. - no realistic expectations or directions - no real benefits besides remote work - Bad managers at the highest levels, most are there for being the longest at the company and buddies with the founders, VPs or other managers. - Layoffs every other day, you had no real stability, they had approved new hires one month and literally at the other they announced a "down sizing of 30%" - No support from the higher ups nor from HR/people, no one moved a finger when the company was at their peak of toxicity

Pros

Although I am grateful for all the learnings I had during my time at ontop I must say, for ethical responsibility, that ontop is miss classifying all their workers. Demanding of them employee-like responsibilities and duties but in the frame of an international contractor. This is dangerous because at the same time when it comes to firing they will take advantage of the contractor side and let you go without any kind of feedback or real reason. But when it comes to demanding from you they will ask for you to give all your time and be exclusive as if you were an employeee

Cons

Work here only if you can handle the anxiety of not knowing if you will have a job tomorrow - even if you are outperforming.
