Software Engineer • Former Employee
October 6, 2023
Pros: You learn a lot due to the fast-paced nature.
Cons: You learn a lot at the cost of everything else.
* Lowballed salary.
* My role was advertised as a SWE role with development opportunities in the job description, but it turned out to be totally different. They basically toy with your future and career growth.
* Forget about work-life balance if you are joining.
* No pay progression nor career progression within the company; it's only good as a stepping stone.
