Cons
CTO is also part owner, workaholic and expects the same out of you regardless of pay. Started out as "cool guy" boss then quickly turned into slave driver. You could not finish projects fast enough for him. Never showed an ounce of gratitude for going the extra mile even when working weekends to do so. Has tendancy to be extremely vague and makes you feel like an idiot if you have to ask questions to get clarity. Be prepared spend way too much time just deciphering what he actually wants. Only way to do something the way you want to do it is convince the boss man it was his idea. Immediately tries to volunteer your weekends. His UK counterpart is even worse. They've made people cry, work 24 hour shifts, called me at 2-3am to yell, all without showing the slightest remorse. I've seen management throwing things while yelling like a capitulant child. Benefits are almost non-existent (bare-minimum). Bonus was a joke. Bizarrely, CTO tells YOU how long tasks should take to complete and often sets way too little time. Last straw for me was company tried pushing liability for GDPR to you, the developer. They are a cesspool of everything that is wrong with social media big data companies. They scrape or use API's to gather user data from Facebook, Instagram, Wikipedia, YouTube & Twitter. They don't abide/adhere to official API terms, and expose you to the liability, awesome right? Too cheap to buy a printer, literally expects you to print stuff out at home and bring it in. Revolving door of developers for all the reasons above. Avoid x 10.
Pros
Variety of exciting projects, fast response from project excecutives, etc.
Cons
Pretty much you're earning minimum wage
