Pros
smart and dedicated co-workers in-memory computing is a hot market the product mostly works how it should the best part of this job was that I realized I was being mistreated so I left and got another job that I really like, where I'm treated with respect in a collaborative environment
Cons
it felt like an atmosphere of fear and anger it felt like the office was tense and people were uncomfortable around each other, especially when senior management was around. at the end of a quarter the tension was unbearable. I got the feeling that even though it was a tiny company I should just keep my head down and do exactly what my boss told me to do I thought people looked at me like I was crazy when I suggested collaborating I also thought that senior management lied, manipulated, and kept staff in the dark to hide that their lack of expertise I felt like senior management verbally abused me and when I complained to the proper channels it felt like I was ignored it seemed to me that the CEO's job was to smile and act nice while the rest of senior management bullied their staff in my opinion, senior management is trying to market a cutting edge product using methods and language from 20 years ago it felt like I was micro-managed without direction, that I was given vague objectives and then belittled and criticized after my work was completed
