Pros: - I'm lucky enough to be in an amazing team, full of fun people (your mileage may vary). - Challenging yet supportive environment conducive for learning. - I get to propose my own ideas even as a junior (again, your mileage may vary).

Cons: - Language barriers may be challenging. - Cultural differences may come as a shock. - Work-life balance (it really depends on your perception; I don't regard it as a con, but I'd wager it's safer to list it as a con).

Pros: - Fun, young teammates - Many opportunities to make an impact and initiate projects - Ample budget for regular team-building activities - Potential to work on high-traffic products, or also opt for internal operation platforms - Work closely with many other teammates: Backend, QAs, and Product - Great benefits for dental coverage, insurance, and a personal wellness fund for fitness-related activities - Daily lunch provision

Cons: - Mainly imported talent, leaders and superiors; local hires are mostly juniors, sometimes senior. - Some teams may popularize the usage of a certain mother tongue, depending on collaborating project teammates. - Strong WFO culture, despite no need for it. - Need to make contributions in both business and technical projects, not only in one category. - Need to work on high-impact and measurable projects to demonstrate contributions and personal growth. - Work with mainly in-house technical tools and stacks. - Never interact much with distant teams; for example, never hear from the CEO much.

Pros: - Free lunch, actually pretty good.

Cons: - Working hours can be difficult. - Expectations of you can be unreasonable.
