Pros

You can learn a lot from working in the company

Cons

No culture, there is no onboarding on anything, and you need to figure things out by yourself, if you don't perform as a robot they will fire you without even giving a reason, horrible experience, I was hoping to learn a lot from the team. I delivered on time (before sprints ended) and even today, I don't know the reason why they fired me, I'm assuming it was because I needed context into a ticket because no onboarding was done correctly for the vast codebase. If you ask too many questions inside your team for clarification is a red flag, for my perspective, is considered a bad thing that you ask questions to give the best results, always do it by yourself and cross your fingers you are thinking the same as they are.

Pros

Good work, lots of AI experiments, AI innovation, latest tech stack, Co-workers are very co-operative and helpful. Most AI tools are still unlimited.

Cons

Some teams are over-working due to smaller teams as a result of recent layoffs. Office perks (like catered food, snacks) are dwindling every quarter even though company wants every employee to be 3 days a week in office. Company wants 80 percent code to be generated by AI but no clear guideline how to achieve that.
