Pros

There’s no bureaucracy, people are nice.

Cons

Pathetic seating conditions for employees, extremely low salaries, high employee turnover and a dismal HR team. They just don’t like to spend $$ where it is important! The various departments don’t talk to each other - creating a complete chaos.
