Pros
Fast-paced environment with exposure. A few supportive colleagues who genuinely try to help.
Cons
No respect for experience: Despite having 5+ years of relevant experience, I was treated like a fresher with no autonomy or decision-making power. Your background holds no value here. Toxic leadership: Every small task needs founder approval. Micromanagement is the norm, not the exception. No work-life balance: Late-night calls, weekend work, and last-minute demands are regular. You're expected to be online at all hours. Unstructured processes: There’s no clarity in roles or goals. Priorities shift daily based on the founder’s mood. Unprofessional conduct: Frequent use of harsh and disrespectful language during reviews and meetings. Instability: Team members are let go randomly. There is no job security, and HR has little to no authority.
