Pros

- They genuinely enjoys teaching and sharing knowledge. - Some projects offer international exposure and experience abroad.

Cons

- Poor communication within the team; people rarely interact or collaborate. - Often speaks rudely and micro-manages tasks, leaving little to no sense of responsibility or trust. - The team has drastically reduced from around 20 people to just 4, which should raise concerns. - Employees have been let go suddenly, without prior notice or explanation, including myself after the probation period. - The business appears to be struggling, with few active projects despite claims of international work. - A tendency to hire mainly junior designers to cut costs.

Pros

Diverse projects, Occasional overseas travel, No payment delays

Cons

Main con very unhealthy atmosphere due to weak management from company owners. There is actual constant distrust from the owners, you have to prove on a daily basis, that you are doing your job and not relaxing or something..
