Pros

Talented and collaborative teammates. Supportive immediate managers and approachable leadership.

Cons

Outdated tech stack slows down development and innovation. Overly complex and bureaucratic processes that hinder productivity. Limited focus on modern best practices (CI/CD, cloud-native, automated testing). Slow decision-making and resistance to adopting new tools. Technical debt makes projects harder to maintain.

Pros

Supportive group, impressive gear & very charming office.

Cons

Micro-management on a level I have not seen elsewhere (home office with "voluntary" all-day calls effectively binding you to the desk). Boring projects, lack of mission. Compensation could be higher. Liberal agenda & posing as some moral compass (chill, you're just a company which makes money).
