Pros

Lots of opportunity for learning new skills and applying them to your job. Great people to work with. Outstanding leadership.

Cons

We run lean and sometimes the workload can be overwhelming when there is a lot going on, but it is an occasional issue that always seems to resolve within a couple of months tops.

Pros

Decent salary. You'll also quickly gain valuable experience in how not to operate on your next job: a lesson that will serve you well in future roles.

Cons

Old-fashioned work culture where you're expected to execute without question. Excessive overtime work, release cycles are chaotic, and there's little appetite for improving systems or sustainability, it's all about following orders rather than thinking critically.
