Pros

Some brilliant people at that company really just trying to do their best.

Cons

- Abysmal upper management - many of which were put into top positions in early days of fast growth and therefore do not have the experience to fit the position - Many of those upper management do not understand your day to day, pretend to listen but ignore the required action, don’t care about over work or burn out - Huge potential for change for the better but hold no interest in trying to implement new methodology to solve problems and improve profits - preferring to fire staff and look for cheaper tools/operational costs - Exploitation of employees from cheaper salaried companies - No formalised structure for professional growth, promotions or pay rises. If you dare get too expensive you could well be let go. - Remote workers have to chose to use holiday for sick days or be unpaid - You are supposed to not be able to achieve your bonus - don’t expect to receive all the that money you are told is your package - Internally competitive culture for bonus and recognition makes it impossible to understand true priorities and creates an unnecessary feeling of permanent urgency - Poor communication across teams and almost no structure or processes throughout - Way too big a company to still think they are a slightly chaotic and agile start up studio. They’re a big company who is a complete mess and can’t save themselves after early COVID success

Pros

1) Remote Work 2) Get paid on time 3) Lots of project to work on

Cons

1) Lots of work - gets exhausted most of the days. 2) Under Paid - based on your nationality and not market value. 3) Worst Thing - very bad Retention Rate. They fire most of the people after certain time.
