Pros

Nice office. Projects are good but only when you get a chance to contribute on them beyond just a renderer

Cons

Horrible place. Feels like slavery or a military operating office with employees considered/ treated as just a tool. Racism against minorities unless you’re from certain groups. Fun fact they can fire someone with the most brutal ways…. Also very high turnover unless you obey and become a slave they can then acknowledge your effort after years of hard-work (maybe)

Pros

Autonomy, challenge, and growth for all levels.

Cons

People stay so roles do not open up as for immediate promotion and it takes a while to move into the associate role.
