Pros

kinda stable, kinda easy going.

Cons

The salary is not competitive, and promotions are more focused on people skills rather than technical expertise. As a result, the tech stack remains stagnant, leading to repetitive work that neither enhances your skills nor expands your exposure to new technology.

Pros

They try to treat the employees nicely, treating us with free foods, drinks, and other events. Great people work here and met a number of incredibly smart and talented people. I have learned and gained a lot since working here.

Cons

They don't care about working in the office, their hybrid work model is very wishy washy. Incidents are sometimes blown out of proportion, and there's a number of norms in the department that cause issues instead of making improvements. On boarding process is very lackluster, and new employees aren't given a lot of guidance when joining,
