Pros

Good learning curve for initial few months. Tech Managers and people in general are knowledgeable and helpful.

Cons

This is a company that relies on a lots of ops along with marketing. That leads to tech folks become like second world citizens. Tech Managers have minimal say in tasks planning and they can't deny weird requests from the product/business team. It would have been alright if product team was top notch, but it isn't. Product Development at Leap is quite chaotic and they want everything to be done yesterday. They'd always pick an immediate solution as compared to a scalable solution and that brings the chaos to tech teams. APMs are usually immature and so is the leadership and hence the cycle continues. You can look up on LinkedIn and see how initial PMs (and Engineers) have already left the company. Slightly tedious but do this exercise if you are actually considering to join.
