Cons

Having worked at both FAANG and startups before, I can confidently say that HS has the worst environment.

Self-righteous TLs: They seem more interested in bluffing and showing off in public channels rather than genuinely leading. Their careless jokes often create extra work for ICs and change the original plan/agreement, but they don’t seem to care.

Toxic culture: Instead of fostering collaboration, the workplace feels like a "Squid Game" competition where people undermine rather than support each other.

Cold-blooded management: The lack of empathy from leadership makes everything worse, reinforcing the cutthroat culture.

Not Inclusive: prefer not to say details but be careful.
