CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Very unique work and hybrid schedule.

Cons

There seems to be absolutely no communication between different levels of the company (VPs, managers, leads, developers). Deadlines are unrealistic and it’s normalized to work weekends and multiple hours of overtime each day throughout the week to get things done. Older workers seem to be done working while the young engineers scramble to get things completed.
