Pros

Dynamic company that is looking to create something really great. If you are ready to be creative and find new solutions this is great place. Very work from home friendly.

Cons

Company is still improving with keeping its remote workers connected. Lots of work to be done on taking the company to the next level so that means a lot of rolling changes to how the company is organized.

Pros

Decent salary. You'll also quickly gain valuable experience in how not to operate on your next job: a lesson that will serve you well in future roles.

Cons

Old-fashioned work culture where you're expected to execute without question. Excessive overtime work, release cycles are chaotic, and there's little appetite for improving systems or sustainability, it's all about following orders rather than thinking critically.
