Pros

Avg. salary pay Talented young engineers (but are leaving)

Cons

Hierarchical organisation. Too many managers. No career path for engineers. The manager has no sense of software engineering: - Tries to involving in multiple projects but can't even do well on a single product. - Thinks multitasking is good - No training/mentoring for juniors. "They should be able to train themselves" - No planning, only dispatching tasks - Values quantity (the number of fixed bugs/ finished tasks) instead of quality - Lack of discipline of engineering. Often rushing to deliver the works. ... and would not listen to advices from engineers.

Pros

HR does a good job with recruiting and onboarding. The exec team seems invested in the company's success. The broader team is excited about the company's future. There is a good level of transparency and communication.

Cons

Nothing to report, this is focused on initial impressions and onboarding.
