Pros

- Good learning experience - had opportunity to juggle multiple roles and projects - mostly young company

Cons

- promotions are not always deserved, some are definitely not merited - inefficient when handling large project, wasting long hours focusing on irrelevant details instead of the main issues. The result is everyone is overworked and underpaid. - poor leadership and management style. Only one person makes the decisions. Reviews do not account for much if you get on their bad side.
