Pros

- Very talented coworkers - Great tech stack - Promising product

Cons

- Many of the companies goals are geared around marketing, and decisions are made without understanding the technical challenges. There are a lot of experts and designers weighing in; but even an honest mistake or last-minute decision can and will lead to hours upon hours of effort for the engineer. - No ramp-up time or proper learning path. Gotta keep asking questions. - Loud office. No meaningful effort to add more desk space, and this prevents everyone from being in-person each day like they keep stressing.

Pros

At least, the benefits were okay.

Cons

• Micromanagement was relentless and suffocating • Every decision required approval, and every task was questioned • I lost confidence in my judgment because every suggestion required unnecessary justification • I had no autonomy to do my work • The same lack of trust affected the entire team • Repeated feedback was ignored, and nothing improved
