Pros

The financial compensation is lterally the only reason i'd reccomend someone working there

Cons

Cut throat Environment, its very common to feel like your boss has it out for you, instead of having your best interest at heart If your boss feels like his job is at jeopardy, he may start to throw you under the bus to all of his higher ups, to make him look better and you worse Boss may lie and say that you asked others to do your work, when you simply asked them to do their part of a process that affect you both You get chastised for not knowing things, even when its your first time learning them Your boss might purposely cancel a progress meeting when the meeting may go in your favor and then reschedule it again once he has more dirt to throw on you, or if you have made a mistake during that time period your boss may talk about you behind your back to your peers, enabling them to do the same thing, and develop less respect for you Boss may edit the daily production tracker that goes out to the Head Boss everyday, to make it seem as though you did no work for the day, even though you did Your supervisor might be nasty to you because others are being nasty to them your boss may make it seem like you are not a good fit for the team, even though others on the team come to you and complain about your boss's fit on the team

Pros

Very good co-workers, Great technology stack. Lot of new technologies and integration with current work.

Cons

They dont even give you a MS cup. They ask you to buy it for 5$. So cheap! Management big on "Giving back", Immediate managers do not like it and are not supportive. Lay off employees twice a year to show profits. Only worried about shareholders and clients. Don't know the criteria for lay-off. So, you are always worried if it is your turn. They boast about mental health and wellness. No good, when they layoff employees like this. HR = Horrible Resources. When you are laid off, they shoo you away as if you are a fly. You feel miserable. They themselves say - "We are better than Facebook or Oracle. We dont fire you at 6 AM over email." Gosh! What a comparison!
