Pros: Quite high base pay

Cons: The worst work culture I have experienced or heard of. Terrible work-life balance; you are expected to work long hours to deliver in improbable timelines set by managers. Absolute lack of planning on the company level. As an individual, you are given a project that naturally requires you to collaborate with others (get their feedback/approval/code review, etc.). However, everyone else in the company is overworked and does not have time for you (nor were they told in advance they will need to work with you). It is then your job to harass others into sparing their time. Gaslighting by management. During my exit interview, upper management tried to convince me that the reason for my quitting was not the problems I described about the company, but rather my suboptimal onboarding experience. Extremely high attrition. Naturally, most people do not want to stay here. Management seems happy to continue looking for people that don't mind these work conditions instead of improving anything. Complete lack of diversity. The company culture is actively hostile to anyone who is interested in life outside of work and doesn't have a stay-at-home partner to support their overly long work hours and stress.

Pros: If you turn a blind eye to all the cons and agree to sacrifice your life/work balance and work long hours in a very harsh atmosphere, then you can be promoted quite fast. Good work-from-home policy.

Cons: The culture is very toxic and fear-driven. An employee might be fired without any meaningful explanations the next day after discussing plans for the next few months with his/her manager. Due to high stress at work, from time to time I have sleep disturbances. The most severe one lasted a whole week and eventually resulted in me calling an ambulance. Everyone's obsessed with KPIs, not the real quality of deliverables. Projects are often badly scoped. As an engineer, you're just a "resource" that might be deployed to any project at any time without even asking you. Working long hours is encouraged by the company's culture, although not compulsory. If you're perfect at everything (speed, quality, etc.), you'll reach only the "Intermediate" level at a performance review. To get a higher score, you'll need to seriously sacrifice your life/work balance.

Pros: Great team culture, and people are willing to learn.

Cons: Projects are very team dependent.
