Pros

Working on a product with potential.

Cons
  • Very bad onboarding and off-boarding. Onboarding to the code base was around 10 minutes.
  • Most of the things related to the codebase are not documented anywhere, and there are no team-wide engineering or communication practices.
  • Huge gap between Android and iOS teams;
  • Bad communication skills from managers. Goals, tasks, and deadlines are not explained clearly.
  • Feedbacks are ignored.
  • Blame culture.
  • Lot of evening meetings and no respect for work-life balance.
  • Overseas communication.
  • Awful health insurance that does not cover many important things.
  • Lot of egos and unwillingness to solve the problems.
Advice to Management

Listen to feedback from employees, have normal onboarding, get better health insurance, hire managers who care about their employees, make sure technical leads have communication skills, have proper accounting, and get rid of your egos.
