Remote work done wrong

Pros

Normally remote work is quite nice and here the nicest part of the job is being able to work remote.

Cons

- Absolute worst onboarding process I have ever experienced. There is some information written down, but generally there is little to know help and you are expected to figure everything out by yourself. - Presents itself as a company, but really it is more a loose collection of freelancers. Work is paid hourly and as with many freelance jobs they often try to squeeze you so they have to pay as little as possible. Meaning you don't get paid for a significant amount of hours worked. - Poor communication within the company, there are handbooks etc. but they don't contain key information or are out of date and a lot of the time most coworkers are hard to reach and can take days to reply to basic stuff. - Management is largely off doing it's own stuff sometimes going away for months and is very quick to judge and very slow to help. - Turnover is incredibly high, I'd be surprised if more than 10% of employees make it past their first year. This leads to very little camaraderie within the company and a lack of knowledge about the codebase, since everyone is leaving all the time.

Pros

There seems to be some good developers

Cons

* Underpaid by industry standards * Nightmare onboarding process * As other review notes, turnover 80% within the first 2-3 months * They will hesitate to pay work you've done during the "trial period"

Pros

Every developer's really strong at what he or she does, but everyone's expected to work at a high standard.

Cons

For some, the strictness of reviews may demotivate a person.
