Pros

1. You get to learn a lot of new modern technologies 2. If the company is in good growth phase , there are lot of good events that you can enjoy 3. Chance to work with some of the most fun and talented people I had the pleasure of working with . Learnt a lot from them :)

Cons

1. The workplace has become a bit toxic so there is very low work life balance. 2. Too much expectations for the deliverables most of which are unrealistic 3. A lot of issues with salaries and promises . Although credited on time , many of the components are not paid and even not informed earlier 4. Very big communication gap between employer and employees due to which most of the times , there is no clear understanding of issues that arises in the organization.

Pros

1.) You will get to learn a lot of new technologies the right way. 2.) Apart from technologies the entire flow from from design to development and lot of technical stuffs like ci/cd etc was taught. The reason for 'was' is in the cons. 3.)You will have that attitude of getting things done and will be technically agnostic.

Cons

1.)Very initial stages of the startup and its not a good idea to risk your career. The training was excellent but they don't do that anymore as the business model has been changed. So I won't suggest joining. 2.) Changed the business model from training and sending to clients from doing their own project and products midway. 3)Continuously went downsizing the employees and eventually, we are left with 7 people from 25. 4) Has just one client as of now and minimal cash flow resulting in constant downsizing. 5) No proper management, no hierarchy, just one boss to rule them all. 6)CEO (boss) trusts only his 'trainers' and has super trust issues with the rest of the employees. 7)Constant disagreements on what was approved by the CEO earlier. You will design wireframes get it approved start development then he will be like 'I didn't approve this'. 8.)The training and deploy to client-side business model has been changed and there is just one client and the future looks hazy as of now. 9.)No work life balance whatsover.
