Pros

Apart from health insurance, there are almost no notable employee benefits.

Cons

* HR is shockingly useless, uninformed, and unhelpful. * There is no real concept of management or leadership. * There is an inner circle inside the company that operates more like a friend group than a professional organization. * Salary increases, title changes, and career opportunities seem to happen mostly within that inner circle. * Employees outside that circle are ignored by the company. * There is no meaningful career development or clear growth path. * The company does not organize any meaningful employee events or activities. * Layoffs happen from time to time, and you may be let go without a clear or convincing reason. * There is a lot of gossip, politics, and behind-the-scenes maneuvering. * Internal communication is poor, and trust between employees and management can feel very weak. * Because the HR team is highly amateur, there is no fair or reliable salary structure within the company.

The typical challenges with an early stage software company.
