Pros
there are literally none available
Cons
This is easily one of the most frustrating workplaces I've experienced. The Scrum process is painfully inefficient. There are two stand-ups every day, and it's not unusual for them to drag on for close to an hour each. A significant portion of the workday ends up being spent giving status updates instead of actually working. The process feels more like a reporting exercise than Agile development. Micromanagement is on another level. Every task, every hour, and every update feels like it needs to be tracked, explained, and justified. There is very little trust in employees, and it often feels like management is more interested in monitoring people than enabling them to do good work. The time-tracking requirements are excessive. Every minute needs to be accounted for, creating constant pressure and unnecessary administrative overhead. I've honestly seen call centers with more relaxed tracking policies. The company is also surprisingly cheap when it comes to basic tools and infrastructure. to a point where communication is being run through a free Discord server. That alone says a lot about where employee experience falls on the priority list. The leave policy is one of the worst I've encountered. Employees get only 2.5 sick leaves in six months. Apparently, getting sick more than two or three times a year is considered unreasonable. If you end up needing additional unplanned leave, be prepared for uncomfortable conversations about your reliability and professionalism. Getting sick becomes stressful not because of your health, but because of how it may be perceived. The overall culture feels built around control rather than trust. Meetings, tracking, approvals, and constant oversight create an environment where employees spend more time proving they're working than actually working.
