Pros

Good scheduling flexibility Asynchronous work Unlimited PTO

Cons

1. Some managers lack prior experience and come from a different field. 2. The company's proclaimed transparency with employees is extremely misleading. 3. Company values are inconsistently followed and vary greatly depending on the team. 4. Feedback requested by management is not genuinely considered and can be used against employees. 5. Employees are expected to be highly autonomous and prioritize asynchronous work, which can hinder team communication and limit opportunities to seek help or opinions. 6. Junior developers have limited opportunities for growth due to the absence of clear structure or guidelines, and managers are often chosen based on tenure rather than experience. 7. Despite claims of promoting work-life balance, the company imposes heavy workloads and high demands, disregarding personal life during tight deadlines and expecting flawless performance.
