Pros

- benefits - good money for new employees - remote work

Cons

- it is rotten from the C level till the bottom. Employees regularly listen his CEO Andrei, who says a lot fancy stuff and how good you should perform. But nothing is improving in day-to day work. He lives in his dreams and don't see what happens inside the company. - women with PMS in C-level product leadership who does spontaneous unproductive decisions. - chaotic processes, blurred responsibility and weak-willed team leaders. Everyone cares only about his personal metrics. - burnout everywhere. No native career growth (you can try to change your responsibilities, and have to overperform 6 months without salary rise to prove you're fit to the new position). - constant overworking hours. No borders. You will be paid for this time, but not mentally repaired. - state of rush in everything. You will be stressed and pushed with timeline from managers for each your task. And then you will be fault if anything goes wrong. - engineers don't use some basic tools for optimal work. No tools to check logs in production (!). No frameworks used in the system. No single standard how to develop system, so it's literally zoo of different patterns and approaches, And if you're are lucky one to be responsible for the legacy part of the system, you will be blamed everytime when somebody find issue in this legacy part. - you can't just work well, you need to get into the idea and the atmosphere, accept it and become part of the system, becoming just as duplicitous and cynical.
