Pros

They pay you well, no complaints there.

Cons

Promotions crawl at a snail’s pace.

No 401k match.

Work-life balance? Forget it — it’s all about 'deliver faster.'

They track how many PRs you crank out and how fast you approve others. The culture leans heavy on blame and stack ranking, with barely anyone getting top ratings. Every quarter’s a pressure cooker during reviews.

Leadership? They’re lost — no clear vision on what’s worth investing in.
