Pros
I worked with some incredibly talented people.
Cons
The problems started with leadership and spread through almost every part of the job. The hours got insane, deadlines kept piling up, and there was never a clear point where enough was actually enough. Small tasks turned into full reviews, simple decisions needed approval, and the amount of control over basic work was just CRAZY. Some managers had this freak need to be involved in everything, which made it hard to trust your own judgment or work independently. Feedback rarely helped, and a lot of conversations left people feeling smaller instead of better. Growth was hard to find, support was limited, and blame moved around faster than solutions. I watched talented people lose confidence, get burned out, and quietly leave one by one.
