Pros

You're involved in partnerships and growth-focused work.

Cons

There's a lot of ambition behind what the company is trying to do, but internally it doesn't always feel as aligned as it should. You'll be working on something that seems important, then priorities shift, or expectations change slightly, and now you're adjusting mid-way. It's not chaos—it's just unstable enough to make everything feel temporary. Like nothing fully sticks.

Pros

You will quickly learn how to survive in a highly stressful environment.

Cons

- Employees at HeyGen are driven into total exhaustion by deeply flawed leadership. - Everyone is buried under crushing workloads and constant overwhelm. - Daily work revolves around chaotic timelines and delivering under absurd, unreasonable deadlines. - Leadership demands endless output for extended hours without regard for limits. - Employees are treated like disposable machines, pushed, used, and drained for as much as possible.

Pros

Exposure to modern tools and rapidly shifting projects.

Cons

- Speed is worshiped while stability and deliberate planning are ignored. - Work is constantly rushed with no clear foundation. - Feedback arrives fragmented and inconsistent. - Revisions pile up because goals are never defined upfront. - Decisions feel impulsive rather than intentional. - Avoidable rework becomes routine. - What appears energetic from the outside quickly turns into exhaustion and burnout.
