Celebration of Chaos

Pros

* Free lunch everyday, healthy and tasty. Unlimited wine, beer (and other choices) for the whole team, almost every afternoon. * HR (People people) team is energetic and works with a sense of purpose. * Smart CEO with loads of experience.

Cons

* Strategy and direction changes quite often, yet to find the right fitment in the value chain. * Utter chaos inside the engineering organization. Any attempt to make things structured is touted "anti-startup culture". Team relies on individual performances and hopes to magically scale up one fine morning. * Highly political atmosphere, despite its small size. A few bloated egos hurt the spirit of many. * Immature hiring process result in high attrition rates (voluntary and involuntary) at all levels. * Career growth is limited (barring a few senior managers) for most of the employees
