Pros

I started my backend engineering journey in this company, and my experience has taught me a lot from a technical perspective as well as interpersonal. People whom I met are mostly nice, and my colleagues are great, but that really depends on what team you're assigned to.

Cons

Work, work, work. A lot of firefighting that impedes me from learning what is good for my career growth. Promotion was not smooth. As with other companies in this tech recession, it is cutting budgets left and right. Salary is not great.
