Pros

Embraces autonomy. Not siloed in any particular problem areas. Easy for devs across different teams or territories to communicate with each other. Full remote working. Good software engineering practices.

Cons

It's been about 7 months since I've been here. Nothing I have a problem with so far.

Pros

Some members of the company are the best people you’ll ever meet.

Cons

Genuinely a complete mess. Incompetent, passive aggressive leadership that repeatedly makes both poor and confusing company decisions. I have some absolutely crazy stories from things I’ve witnessed here. There’s things that are so bizarre and dysfunctional, they belong in an alternate reality.
