Pros

I really wish I could say there were some pros but this was the worst place I ever have worked at. Having been at FANG companies most of my life this was a real shock.

Cons

Management Confusing direction from CEO Unclear objectives Lacking real tech - it's basically an outsourcing company

Pros

Stock options that can potentially be worthwhile if the company eventually goes public

Cons

Average work week of 60+ hrs Working every single weekend is a norm No transparency on future plans, Upper management is completely dishonest and untrustworthy Underpaid full time offer High stress environment Several of my coworkers are contractors whose contracts were promised to be renewed yet when brought up recently they were essentially given no answers — extremely poor ethics in this regard considering we’re in a pandemic, this simply shows that the company does not care about its workers. At least be transparent about future plans so people can prepare accordingly.

Pros

Probably will be worth something some day Very smart colleagues, good eng culture

Cons

Run by amateurs, CEO's circle of trusted 5 are absolutely incompetent and get involved in all high priority projects making everyone work 19 hour days for no good reason
