Pros

As the title says work-life balance was pretty good, company culture is geared towards employee welfare, flexibility to work on some open source technologies based on the team, compensation is not bad but not over the top.Not too strict about scrum or processes so more time to spend on development.

Cons

Promotions are random and no clear path with few levels to grow. Old timers in the company coasting for too long with some recent attrition but definitely needs more new and young talent to join. Work can get easy going and not so motivating after a while. Low morale on turning over the company to appeal to MZ generation of users.
