Startup on the Verge of Collapse

Pros

Nice office location with a great view. Most co-workers are are nice to work with.

Cons

CEO is a hypocrite who talks about company values but will lie and contradict himself within 5 minutes. Had a consultant come in to collect feedback on 'culture' issues, but when he received terrible feedback he cancelled the initiative and pretended it never happened. Product suffers many failures per day - I wouldn't use it or recommend it. CEO and CTO have public screaming matches at each other. Stock options aren't competitive. There are many other places to start your career - you'll learn nothing but bad habits here.

Pros

Very smart engineering and marketing/customer advocate staff. Beautiful view in the entire office. JS stack mostly. Free snacks. Business class Orca card.

Cons

Provided Healthcare is only subsidized, not free. Ridiculous unsustainable microservice "architecture": don't worry about design, just make a new service. No testing, docs, or examples for the most part (plenty of RANDOM 1 line readmes though). Bus factor of 1 - knowledge is localized to each employee, so good luck building a new project that uses 10 microservices and none of them have a robust API or docs - better hope the person who built it isn't out sick that day! Euphemisms for policies meant to hide the fading "startup culture". Inexplicable and inefficient management of engineers. Employee Equity as listed on job sites never comes up, so your salary is your salary.

Pros

You do not have to work that hard.

Cons

Desperate "leadership" has resorted to writing fake positive reviews on Glassdoor. Customers leaving in droves, especially after finding security vulnerability exposing customer info for over a year. Consultants making hundreds of dollars an hour. Complete mystery what they do. "Strategy" changes every 3 months. Leadership team is a joke, especially partner and apps. CEO is a giant baby that tries to chase something new every month.
