Pros

The only pro I can think of is meeting some nice people, but you can meet good people anywhere else.

Cons

I don't even know where to start, as there are so many issues with So Energy, all of which I have personally raised with multiple managers and HR, but no action has been taken. Here is a list: - Aggressive management style that cascades down from upper management to direct line managers. - Being interrogated on design decisions and not trusted to do your own work; then, being asked to design things a certain way based on management's personal preferences and not on what is best for the user. - Women being paid 45% less than men in the same role with the same experience. - Unrealistic deadlines and demands, having to work simultaneously on multiple projects and teams, and being expected to work after hours with zero time for personal development. - A culture of blame, where designers are always held accountable for decisions made as a team or even by upper management. If you're looking for a place that will inspire you to progress and empower you to do your best work, So Energy is NOT the place for you.
