Pros

Average salary, can't say more

Cons

They sell the opportunity as a great one because you'll report directly to the CTO. The work environment is great, except for the CTO, a very toxic passive-aggressive person.

Pros

* You work with an AI-driven product; that's a pro if you pursue that.

Cons

* The company has had a staggering 100% quarterly turnover rate since its inception. * Dishonesty is rampant; for example, offering bonuses that are never paid out, misleading reasons for hiring strategies, and empty promises about stock options. * Working on holidays is mandated unless there's collective pushback. * Taking even recognized holidays off affects your monthly salary. * Weekend disturbances for non-urgent matters are common. * Micromanagement is the norm, led by someone with an inflated ego. * Your work scope may change daily, followed by public shaming for inevitable failures. * You can meticulously document and meet agreed-upon goals, yet still face repercussions for unmet, unspoken expectations. * Expect passive-aggressive communication from management. * Public humiliation is frequent, and aggressive behavior is a daily occurrence. * Expert hires struggle as their professional recommendations are often disregarded in favor of outdated or ineffective approaches. * Employee input is neither desired nor considered. * Any attempt to be proactive or add value is met with resistance and could lead to blacklisting. * Team morale is low; nobody looks forward to starting their workday.

Pros

None. Not recommended to anyone unless you really need the money.

Cons

The CTO is a person who does not know how to deal with people. It really surprises me that he is in charge of a company. He is passive aggressive constantly, he changed the scope of tasks up to several times in the same day. He pretends to be friendly when he is highly aggressive. The CEO promised bonuses that were never delivered, I call that a scam too.
