Pros

-Amazing talent. There is a bunch of extremely gifted employees here and learning from them is a pleasure. -Transparency of the CEO. He still seems to believe in the core company values and tries to communicate clearly with employees. -The product, which is not only interesting in a technical way, but also far superior to the competition. -Truly international environment and the remote-first attitude.

Cons

-The management completely ignores any negative feedback. They simply cherry pick the positives and brag about how awesome they are. This is quite common in huge corporations, but I would expect something more from a company that calls itself a startup. -High-level decisions are made without any input from the people that actually deliver. -HR department is a joke. Constantly trying to solve the problems that do not exist and ignore the ones that do hurt people here.
