- Some of the people you'll work with (an absolute minority!) are geniuses and a pleasure to learn from.

- Short-term thinking.
- Company doesn't care about your wellbeing (comp/conditions).
- Extremely toxic: people will take credit for other people's work or will not do any work that will not directly make them sound like heroes.
