Pros

Remote work. Weekly Meal Bonus

Cons

One of the biggest concerns is that many managers are very early in their careers, often with only a few years of experience. While they are energetic and well-intentioned, they generally lack the leadership and client-facing experience needed to effectively support their teams. This becomes particularly noticeable in high-pressure situations or when managing complex client relationships. Team allocation is another issue. Employees are typically assigned to teams without much consideration for their preferences or long-term development goals. This lack of flexibility can make it difficult to build a career path within the company. Work-life balance is also a major drawback. Long hours are the norm, and working late into the night—sometimes until 10 PM, 11 PM, or even midnight—is quite common. The workload is consistently heavy across most teams, and expectations can feel overwhelming, especially without strong managerial support. Additionally, the company appears to have relatively high turnover. There have been reports of significant layoffs in the past, and the cycle of hiring and attrition seems ongoing. This creates a sense of instability and makes it harder for teams to maintain continuity.
