A decent place to start learning contract work.
A constrictive process that was very meeting-heavy. The tech lead was clearly stressed out, trying to map unofficial time estimates onto arbitrary points that weren't "supposed" to represent how many days it would take.
The code is a wreck: an old Objective-C project written in the VIPER pattern and falling apart. They're sticking new Swift screens into it but don't understand what things like MVVM and view models actually mean.
Designers want you to be pixel-perfect for a design they poorly copied from the Apple Human Interface Guidelines (so you have to kind of recreate the Apple guidelines but just a little off). They tacked on accessibility work without resizing estimates for tickets.
Overall, it's very much a company that values its process over its product or its people.
