Pros

Capable and motivated colleagues who are always willing to collaborate.

Cons

There was a major lack of concern for employee wellness and a very toxic culture of overworking. Turnover was extremely high, and these culture issues were ignored by management. The work was very monotonous, and stress was put on completing more than is possible in an 8 hour day. Employees were practically forced to return to the office in March 2021 unless they pushed back really hard. The CEO doesn’t believe in remote work and is doubling down that everyone must be in the office, despite most jobs not really requiring this. Many people work 60-70 hours per week and on weekends. This company claims to be a startup, but employees do not receive stock options. This means that all of that overtime work goes unpaid.

Pros

My team was really professional and I loved my manager. She was incredibly helpful and always willing to consult on best practices.

Cons

Awful company culture. The office environment was so suffocating, They expanded the office that included a Nintendo room (ik this sounds petty but if you were to see the room, you’d understand) and we were required to not spend more than 10 mins at a time away from our desk. So performative and did not foster collaboration in any way.
