Pros

Some genuinely talented colleagues. Some good technologies.

Cons

Post-Acquisition Chaos: Since the merger with [Other Company], our once efficient product has been lost in a complex and wasteful platform. Lack of Clarity and Planning: Strategic direction is muddled and inconsistent, leading to decreased morale. Slow Development Times: The new platform's complexity has drastically slowed down our development process. Poor Kanban Management: What used to be an efficient system is now plagued with bottlenecks and delays. CTO's Lack of Business Focus: There's an excessive emphasis on over-engineering suitable for a company much larger than ours. This disconnect leads to inefficiencies and disillusionment. Nepotism in Leadership: A clear inner circle operates on their own motivations, often disconnected from actual business needs. Ineffective New Processes: New processes introduced by the CTO were tried but never improved upon based on team feedback. Instead, more meaningless steps were added, creating a disconnect between design and application. Ignored Feedback: There's no effective mechanism for feedback. When given, it's often ignored or bogged down by additional processes. Frustration and Negativity: Team members are worn down, leading to an environment of bitterness and a sense of futility.

Pros

Great culture with easy access to leadership who are quick to support with decisions (great in sales :) )

Cons

If you're not comfortable with a fast paced organisation and able to adopt to changes, it might not be for you.
