Horrendous pay.
Simply no perks. Employees don't even get discounts. (Employees in certain regions do, but it's limited to $100 a year).
Employees are treated as "employees".

Cheap company. I reiterate, they are cheap, not frugal!
Performance ratings given on whims of manager. No proper structure or objectivity.
Extremely horrible stock vesting period.

The performance rating you receive and the salary increment is extremely dependent upon the amount of money your team has.
