Pros

Good culture Amazing projects to work on and make impact Amazing people

Cons

Too many paper works come in between projects. I wish the company will trust in full CI/CD. If my code is checked in, then there will be no further checks or paperworks to progress it in the pipeline.

Pros

Compensation and benefits are somewhat decent

Cons

Extremely toxic work culture with favoritism and office politics Incompetent leadership that does not listen to employees Zero career growth unless you're part of the inner circle Work-life balance is a joke—constant pressure, unrealistic deadlines, and no real support Feedback is not welcome; questioning decisions can put you on the chopping block Innovation is stifled by excessive bureaucracy and indecisive management
