Pros

Can't think of any. If your mission in life is to slog for a company for a crappy free lunch, this is the place to join. That's there only selling point.

Cons

The culture is toxic. They'll sell you on how they are one big happy family. It's all kumbaya until you realize how farcical and far fetched it is. People are passive aggressive and some downright rude. It's a revolving door of exits with people getting burnouts, leaving or being let go. Highest churn I've seen anywhere. Unlike many companies that are now fully remote, at JFrog you are forced to work from their office. It's a mentality and culture from the 1990s/early 2000. Forget work/life balance. It's hands-down a tech sweat shop . HR is awful. Bunch of unqualified, unprofessional numpties. The stock has completely collapsed from where it was when they went public.

Pros

Relatively stabile company in terms of no layoffs, good product fit, generally great team members across the organization

Cons

Too many chefs in the kitchen on majority of the projects, too much involvement from c-suite on minor details, too many people in senior positions make very last minute demands and do not supply the support to make them happen in a timely fashion, last but not least c-suite is pretty much never satisfied. C-suite will frequently lash out on one person on a call with many stakeholders for a small mistake or a mistake that isn't their fault (even if it was a big mistake I don't condone this type of behavior). I don't know if I ever heard any positive feedback at all from C-suite to anyone that wasn't already quite senior.
