Pros

Free lunches and dinner 4 times a week. Probably should list that as a con as it's to keep people in the office working while in crunch. Competitive compensation. 401k matching. Stock options.

Cons

No work life balance. HR is catty and talks about employees negatively behind their backs. Desperately needs talent. High turnover rate. Had two people quit without notice recently. New employees often left with no guidance or onboarding. Way too many meetings and meetings about meetings. Meetings are just a complaint session where nothing gets resolved or accomplished. The project is missing technical leadership that would solve all these issues from tech to project management.
