Pros

Can't think of a single one

Cons

saying there is no sense of work/life balance is an understatement. family was never a priority or an acceptable reason for flexibility. poor leadership at every level and HR doesn't even seem to try to hid that they only care about the business first - just remove the word "human" from the department. Never had such a poor work environment or anxiety.

Very bad work life balance, servicing retailers means that you're on call most holidays.

Pros

Swiftly has built a commanding position in a challenging space where retailers need sophisticated data service but don't have the ability, for the most part, to develop these systems in-house. Lot of smart people in the trenches doing good work.

Cons

Engineering Leadership and many C-suite residents are out of touch with what is really going on at the ground level and are making decisions based on trendy buzzword bingo cards, or so it seems. Meeting mania and overhead "office hours" are sapping real productivity. Some engineering managers are obsessed with the idea that AI will solve all and every problem.
