Pros

Ok base pay and remote work

Cons

Excessive goals given as a “stretch” No direction in management Old school management techniques, quick to criticize, never to give advice Senior management lies to cover their own selves The product is trash, it requires integrations that the company refuses to build. They lie in the interview process then expect 60 hours a week. They have zero concept of time zones
