Toxic company with no integrity

Pros

The people on the ground (devs, QA, devops) are hard working, friendly and a joy to work with

Cons

I, along with many of my colleagues found myself being summarily fired without any warning via Zoom. The execution of this was particularly heartless, with our IT access being cut almost immediately, denying us the chance to do any kind of handover, or even to say goodbye to our friends and colleagues. When the current CTO was promoted to the position, the engineering dept quickly deteriorated. Almost immediately, it became obvious that if you were not one of the CTOs ‘favourites’ (limited to people who never voiced a differing opinion to his), you would be treated as a dispensable subordinate and treated as such. After some time, several of my colleagues (mostly experienced managers who had questioned the CTOs behaviour and treatment of the team) began being fired on the spot, despite being valued and respected members of the team. The culture at a management level is toxic and rife with nepotism. They promote people into roles well above their capability because they are generally less expensive and less likely to challenge authority.

no respect for their employees

Pros

Remote work possibilities An 'okay' pay

Cons

No matter how hard-working, good at your job or loyal you will be - they would fire you on the spot and you will only get a kick on your butt when firing. The best thing - they will still ask you to work after being laid off. Insane, huh? :-) Completely no respect in the process, very superficial and not-transparent, fake communication while being within the company. If you want to work in a company where there is a clear strategy, management that knows what they're doing and overall if you want to feel secure about your job - avoid this place by any cost. It will be just disappointing.
