Pros

Good office place, decent tooling. Lark is a powerful communication tool. People are efficient and to the point.

Cons

Forget about WLB if you work here. My personal experience was 995. Lunch and dinner are always rushed. No time for anything else in life. The compensation is higher than banks, but not worth the workload.
