Pros
The company's mission, which is what they sell and why most people join. Most non-top-level coworkers were great people.
Cons
Toxic culture, horrible hours with expected weekend work/meetings, and no regard for a personal life outside of work. Regular micro-managing, looking over your shoulder, and wasted time having to keep detailed track of productivity meanwhile founder(s) throw out team's work at the last minute and kill the team to redo it to their personal preferences. Witnessed founders lying to prospects regularly. Respect, trust in the people doing the work, and giving good direction was scarce while panic, constant changes in direction, unrealistic timeline expectations, poor communication, finger-pointing, and a facade of civility and politeness was prolific. Witnessed a founder mid-convo turn to a young team member and reactively give negative feedback in front of everyone at a social company event where we were supposed to be bonding. CEO is an ex-finance bro turned Steve Jobs wannabe that would threaten employees with termination during meetings. A psychologically unsafe place where employees felt bait-and-switched after joining.
