Remote only job, can work from anywhere.

Mostly clear task requirements.

Not much bureaucracy, you can ship work quickly.

Very tight deadlines. I feel like they make every single request the most important in the world and needs to be finished ASAP, just for the sake of it.

Team lead is very responsive and helpful but also obsessed with efficiency. They will question and reprimand you on each task not completed in their estimated time. A lot of check-ins on progress.

If the job was adequately paid, I wouldn't say anything about this. But they pay senior engineers far less than other companies while at the same time boasting about record high profits and growth.

They cut down on benefits. There used to be a $100 reimbursement for bills or other expenses, but they removed that.

I don't plan on staying very much longer; I will leave with the first opportunity.

Invest more in your engineers, with better compensation or less strict deadlines.
