Pros

Decent salary, Office food and perks (transport etc.)

Cons

Higher management has bad attitude, they'll hire you for one position. The project might get downsized for business reasons. You'll be put in a project that does'nt match your skillset, Yet you'll have to meet un-resonable deadlines. Either your health suffers, or you are fired. Cant see how can anyone stay for long duration. Its more of a problem for technical folks (developers). Managers can survive by blindly following orders of overseas supervisors.

Pros

There WERE great people who worked there. But wow, they are dropping like flies. “Unlimited” PTO

Cons

Benefits are weak, pay is way below industry for engineers. Leadership is literally ripping out entire departments from the top down.A VP is fired, the new person starts, the new person fires the entire team and replaces it with their own people. A person will be let go and days later the replacement will start. It has impacted so many departments and isn’t stopping any time soon. I’ve already seen it happen in Product/engineering, Finance, HR, Recruiting and other outlying departments. Most people I’m aware of are actively looking because they know the goal is to basically rebuild the company with all new people. It’s chaotic, it’s toxic, RUN!
