Pros

- remote work - mostly young and experienced people - nice colleagues (until they got fired)

Cons

- private WhatsApp or LinkedIn messages about new tasks or "ideas" on weekends - "why is this not ready" mentality on a daily basis, even towards employees that just started - onboarding only consists of a stack of PowerPoint presentations - meetings regularly have overtime - constant hire and fire - teams get thrown together and pulled apart; team members have to fear to be fired - rude gorilla-like (and at the same time boys-like) behavior of the whole c-suite - example: changing clothes for a photoshoot in front of female colleagues without asking or doing pull-ups to show off strength - lack of female energy in every single department - no benefits except free coffee and snacks - even if you are not personally offended, threatened or constantly criticized, you will feel bad for everyone else and ultimately be demotivated
