They hired me over 2 weeks and three rounds of interviews - and fired me in less than 1 day
Pros
Gave me an idea of what a company should not be like. Seriously.
Cons
I can't give you a detailed or holistic view of their cons because I was fired from there on my first day of training. The entire team works over a single Zoom call, and you are expected to tune in to the entire conversation while also working on the content task that is assigned to you. Now, that's what I call a distraction-free work setting! I was fired by the CEO citing miscommunication with a senior team member. It's my first day there, I'm trying to understand the people and their work process, and I made a mistake of tuning out of a call because I thought it wasn't meant for me. All they have to do is check in via chat to see if I'm there, right? But, no, I receive a text from the CEO an hour later saying I'll be fired if there's any more communication errors from my side. I tell him that I'll be more careful next time. During this time, I am asked to write a paragraph, which I've done, and I'm waiting for its review or any further instructions. During the next call, which is around mid day, the CEO asks me what I've been doing so far. I tell him that I finished writing the paragraph like I was asked to, and there were no further instructions. Do remember that it is my first day there. I'm patiently waiting and learning how these guys go about their work. The CEO is like, you can leave. Apparently, I'm supposed to account for every hour and minute on my first day there, and telepathically guess what these guys want from me. I left, and that was my time at this company. They want you to communicate perfectly with them from the get go, while they won't even lift a finger to make sure that they have us on the same page with them.
