Pros

- Really great colleagues. Intelligent, friendly and willing to share their knowledge - I never personally felt pressured to work late or do overtime, barring a few days through the year where something urgent had to be done (but these overtime stretches would typically be less than a week) - I felt able to take vacation when I needed it, never felt pressured to not take it or made to feel bad about taking long vacation - Free, quality lunch

Cons

- You may be travelling for extended periods of time to customer site - Low per diem pay for travel - A few times I was expected to take the day before work to travel unpaid (e.g. Sunday evening travel to arrive at customer site Monday morning) though this only happened once or twice in the years I was there - No remote work - Though I didn't feel pressure to do it personally, a fair amount of employees do end up staying late

Pros

Colleagues are easy to get along with

Cons

Imagine you work at in a company where deadlines are almost always missed due to lack of organization on multiple levels. Imagine you work unnecessary overtime. Unnecessary not because your colleagues are inefficient, but because leadership has failed to implement any cohesive planning/forecasting, and failed even further to allocate resources effectively. Imagine you feel anxiety about taking a vacation with your family, because you never know when that phone will ring, even if your contract never stipulates on-call requirements. Now imagine that during a company wide all hands meeting, you and your colleagues raise thoughtful questions about the direction of the company, and perhaps even pitch a few ideas of how to improve things. After all, feedback is crucial in any organization. After all manner of input and suggestions from multiple departments, managers and non-managers, the founder and CEO replies with simply this: "All this chaos is by design." That's it. No improvements, no changes, no self-reflection. This is what working in Mujin is like.
