Pros

The work life balance can be quite nice at times. However, it comes at the cost of working intense hours some weeks and enjoying some shorter days. Can be lax at times as well.

Cons

No prospects. Difficult to aspire to much or stay motivated. Very sexist atmosphere, very boys club at times. Lots of gossiping behind people's backs. Management is incapable of inspiring employees. Days just sludge on with no incentive. Very depressing job. Pay is not nearly enough to tolerate some of this crap.

Pros

There are a handful of people here who are fantastic to work with, are very knowledgeable, and care about the product that's going out the door.

Cons

Leadership is fundamentally out of touch and appears indifferent to employee well-being. The culture is marred by nepotism and a lack of accountability, where 'guiding values' are preached but never practiced. Feedback is discouraged, and those who speak up are often targeted. Expect a 'reward' of more work for the same pay, as promotions are rare and promised bonuses are frequently withheld despite strong site performance. A very frustrating and toxic environment for those who value merit and transparency.
