Pros

- used to be a fun place

Cons

- cofounder thinks he knows everything about everything but in reality, he knows absolutely nothing - neither does he have any knowledge of business or tech and not project management - he will set you up for failure so that it becomes easy for him to fire you later on the pretext of low performance - absolutely no chance of career growth - opaque salary structure. compensation is NOT based on your skills and experience.

Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We regret to hear that your time with our company did not meet your expectations. Throughout the past year, we've been working on introducing new processes to enhance our customer experience. Despite providing constant feedback and opportunities for improvement, we understand that it may have been challenging for you to adjust to these changes. After multiple code reviews from our senior team, we made the unfortunate decision to end our collaboration. However, we want to assure you that we provided references to support your search for a new role. We appreciate your contributions during your time with us and wish you the best in your future endeavors.
