Pros

The false persona they exude upon first arrival of their "we are family here" BS. The are nice tonyour face til you make waves then you are the problem.

Cons

True people they really are with their pretend open door policy. Once I told them I was being sexually harassed by a coke head in their office they fired me 2 days later stating that I was a dime a dozen and they can find workers like me anywhere. My response, ditto! And yes they will back stab you without hesitation! If I had the energy I would have sued them! There product is knock off junk amd you will be constantly yelled at by their,customers. Very rarely did I ever get someone on the phone just needing support, rather they just wanted to tell at someone!

Pros

Great opportunity to gain hands-on experience with large-scale payment systems and work alongside talented engineering teams. I developed a strong understanding of payment processing, backend systems, and enterprise technology while working on challenging, high-impact projects.

Cons

Executive leadership often seemed disconnected from the realities of running the business, with limited visibility into team capacity and the long-term impact that repeated layoffs had on product quality, customer experience, and operational effectiveness. Many managers and directors were strong technical contributors but lacked the people leadership skills needed to build and support high-performing teams. My experience included frequent micromanagement, unrealistic expectations, public criticism, and a tendency to assign blame rather than encourage collaboration. This created a culture of low morale and made it difficult for employees to do their best work.
