Pros

The products are earning money

Cons

Bad people, high-pressure workload, environment is bad. No beverage, no food, only coffee. The oncall is horrible, sometimes you are weakened up in the mid-night to deal with tickets. Management is bad, the managers like to use PIP to threat the developers, so that press them to work. This is a cold place, average staying period is 11 months, people flowing very quickly. The leadership principles are like brainwashing, people like to use LPs to speak to each other, and set obstacles to other team members to show their self values.
