Pros

Cash pay is above market if you're outside US. They hire via B2B contract which helps partial tax evasion. Work-life is good if you're fan of discussing work instead of working. Certain percentage of smart and nice people hired in 2020-2021 still work here.

Cons

Toxic and unproductive culture which is essentially a reflection of CEO. He micromanages, only hires "yes-people" to C-level, stimulates quarterly 180 degree strategic changes and hates criticism. This is sadly ruining a formerly hyper-growth company. Horrible HR department too, tons of ex-colleagues laid of with zero feedback and compensation. Does not help our daily motivation to be honest.
