Pros

- Can take WFH option four days a month

Cons

- The product lacked any coherent vision — priorities shifted constantly, and features were built only to be removed later. No A/B testing, no data-driven decisions. Just instinct-driven development. - Decisions were impulsive, with no long-term strategy for product growth or tech innovation. - Senior management frequently shouted, berated, and used abusive language on the floor. For them, a day without disrespecting someone seemed like a day wasted. - Timelines were consistently unrealistic, fueling an ever-growing mountain of tech debt. - The founder’s office was a revolving door — senior leaders rarely lasted unless they were willing to flatter. - HRBPs were dismissive and condescending; instead of offering support, they met employees with belittling remarks. - Bonuses were delayed, and loyal employees — even those with over five years of service — were let go without any justification.

Pros

Highly fast-paced environment where you can gain a tremendous amount of hands-on experience in a short time. The exposure to a wide and modern tech stack is a major advantage, especially for developers looking to grow quickly. There are plenty of opportunities to learn new tools, frameworks, and best practices, which makes it a great place for skill development. The dynamic nature of the work keeps things exciting and helps build strong problem-solving abilities.

Cons

The primary downside is the pressure of shorter deadlines, which can sometimes be challenging to manage and may lead to a demanding work pace. Better timeline planning could improve the overall work-life balance.
