Pros

Nice office Great co-workers No one is competing for you job/position

Cons

- No early raises - No bonuses - Under appreciated - Expected to work hard but the company won’t do the same for you - Half the people doesn’t even know what the company does. - Talented workers usually don’t last long because they know this is a career killer. - There’s no communication between management and their employees. - Management will inform you at most 2 weeks before a product is launching or going live. - No one has titles. You have no idea who your manager is, or what they even do.

Pros

- Intelligent and fun coworkers, super chill people - Indoor basketball court but you can't use it during office hours

Cons

- Most of the cool employees either left or laid off - No salary raise due to the lack of performance review. Your manager has zero knowledge on your work. Extra work is not recognized, the most you might get is a pat on the back. - Zero transparency and lies from management. Town halls are glorified speeches to hype up the company and to cover up the reality. - Overpromises to clients. Selling features that doesn't exist and expect developers to deliver in unrealistic timeframe. Which caused clients to leave. - Favouritism. People in the big boys club get treated like royals, and every one else is just peasants. - Unwillingness to change. The "flagship" product has been reworked/refactored for numerous times through out the years and it is still not functional. No one looks back and try to figure out why. - Meaningless meetings. Sometimes meetings are absolutely useless and nothing is accomplished. When decisions are actually made, they will be thrown away in the following weeks and people will be circling back to the same problems again.
