Pros

The only positive that was gained from working here is the skillsets because you will learn a lot and friendly co-workers that share the same stress load as you... That's about it.

Cons

Let's start off by saying that I was initially excited at joining this company, knowing that it was a new and different experience, but all that has changed within less than a year. If I could give this review negative stars, I WOULD! This company operates in ways that are ruthless, selfish, and degrades hard-workers (including contractors) in ways unimagined. Some managers don't care about their team members and won't even give credit to those that did all the internal work, so they can get all the credit by sharing with the executives. So much lying, backstabbing, and blaming occurs in this chaotic environment, and they fire or put people into fear of being fired if they don't go the extra lengths, which means working even longer hours. What this company is doing is extremely illegal to a lot of dedicated, hard-workers while favoritism is placed amongst those that don't even have a clue of what it's like to put in laborious, long working conditions since they're too busy taking vacations every month. What's surprising is how this company is surviving even with the negative profit! Well there goes your bonus...

Pros

A mature start up feel. No two days are the same, lots of interesting projects to work on and given the opportunity to have an impact The people are a highlight. Teams are collaborative, driven, and full of smart individuals who are genuinely invested in what they’re building. There’s a strong sense of ownership, and you’re given the opportunity to contribute in a meaningful way regardless of level.

Cons

There really are not any major cons so far. It is 5 days in office. And whilst I am local and enjoy coming in a little flexibility would be nice. That said there's a great gym, good restaurant and free EV charging so I like being here!
