Good money, poor career choice

Pros

Smart colleagues, cool product, good line management. The role has some ‘impact’, albeit very removed and intangible.

Cons

Leadership team makes decisions that are implemented last minute, completely changing workflows, responsibilities and departments. Promotion is very hard to come by. Pay rises virtually impossible unless you are prepared to walk. The actual work is incredibly repetitive, verging on mundane, depending on your expertise. You will be exposed to graphic content. Your hours are rigid and inflexible. You will learn very few skills applicable to jobs elsewhere. Project work is nearly always mundane and has little effect on the product. Projects can be cancelled or turned down at the drop of a hat.

Pros

Many passionate employees across the various timezones and function areas. Reasonable benefits (health insurance, WFH options)

Cons

Huge amount of micromanagement. Working across function areas although is theoretically supported, micromanagement means you must go through layers of bureaucracy instead of just reaching out. Senior management is so incredibly out of touch, with constant poor strategic decisions, layoffs, uncertainty. Risk taking is not encouraged, and if anything we were warned to be conscious of those more senior when suggesting ideas. Career opportunities are so poor here, once you come in at a certain level it will take a few years to get to the next level even if you are immediately demonstrating you are performing at least at that level. Pay increases were close to nothing even when inflation is at its highest in years. Real salary effectively went down over years.

Pros

Co workers are some of the smartest and nicest people I had ever met.

Cons

Management has no vision. There's no transparency in the company, from promotion to even the product. There is also a history of questionable treatment towards staff coming from minority backgrounds.
