If you're young and hungry, this is a creative and exciting place to cut your teeth. Passion is the fuel that this company runs on so be prepared to join in the madness that is fast turn around projects with technology that's untested and bleeding edge.
- There are some great projects that you'll get to work on
- The overall company culture is laid back and co-workers are pleasant
- There's opportunity for mentorship & training (Jake is a wealth of knowledge)
- Everyone is given a chance to be creatively involved in designing experiences
Cons
But after a while you're likely to realize that the expectation placed upon you to do 2-3 people's job is unsustainable and doesn't even come close to matching the compensation.
- All decisions are unilaterally made by the CEO which causes huge bottlenecks and inefficiencies
- A general lack of trust in employees tends to cause leadership to be overbearing at their best and belittling at their worst
- Incessant focus on time tracking and task scheduling zaps energy
- Lack of remote work flexibility and an overall transparent policy around this
- Salary and healthcare benefits are not competitive
