Pros

It is a recognised brand.

Cons

The work was disorganised, unpredictable, and subject to constant changes. The person-in-charge was difficult to work with, and inconsistent with feedback. I understood that on a wider scale, the team/ leaders had changed or were terminated (sometimes abruptly) through restructuring or other reasons, which contributed to the unpredictability of the work, how it was structured, and changes in the broader strategy. I also received notifications/ updates on the work beyond hours (early mornings/ late nights/ through the weekend). This isn't uncommon and it may not at all be an issue, but expect that this is likely part of their culture or requirements.

We appreciate you sharing your perspective. You’re right that our pace is fast, and business needs require us to pivot quickly. However, we’ll continue to prioritise better managing the human impact of these changes. Constant change without clear context is disruptive and stressful, which is an experience we never want for our team. To that end, we are committed to clearly communicating the "why" behind strategic shifts to prevent unnecessary churn. Regarding work-life balance, while our global team collaborates across time zones, we'll continue to ensure our team members feel empowered to protect their personal time. Thank you again for your honesty. This feedback is valuable as we continue to scale.
