Pros

The company offers, a two-day weekly holiday, partially subsidized lunch, and a culture free from office politics.

Cons

The workload seemed unsustainable and unfavorable, coupled with the use of niche technologies. It is an environment where developers are unfairly blamed for shortcomings of the inexperienced product team. Furthermore, limited growth opportunities, stagnant project cycles, and lack of senior resources exacerbate the existing issues. The absence of initiatives for mental well-being within the organization contributes to employee burnout and dissatisfaction. The institution is now suffering from low employee retention rate due to employee mistreatment in every stages.

Friendly environment, Try to maintain Agile.

Cons

Inexperienced management. The CXO's are family and friends of each other and severely lacks the capability to make a product profitable. Facing acute financial problems and laid off some talent seniors. Fake promises every time, No job security If you are not a friend/relative of CXOs.
