Pros

Lots of great co-workers (smart, hard working) Great work/life balance Good benefits and perks

Cons

TERRIBLE management. Constantly providing lots of lip service about how X will improve, yet it never does. Some examples: training, career guidance, low compensation, hiring/team size. Hilariously bad internal communication Unethical business practices Uncertain future Poor compensation

Pros

* I enjoyed the collaborative team culture. Everyone was supportive and willing to help each other. * The work-life balance was good, and the overall working environment was relatively low stress. * I had opportunities to work on large-scale enterprise products and collaborate with cross-functional teams.

Cons

* One area I felt could be improved was compensation growth. As my responsibilities and technical skills expanded, I was looking for opportunities that offered stronger career and compensation progression.
