Pros

- Free Company Branded Fidget Spinners - Easy Access to TTC - Beer Friday - Bi-Weekly Lunches, - Weekly Bagels For Breakfast - Unlimited Coffee (what tech company doesn't?) - Good pay and benefits package

Cons

- Extremely high employee turnover and frequent waves of terminations - Spaghetti code, everywhere - Product that makes money off of people cheating on their significant others - Shady "Dark Patterns" in the product to trick people into spending money - Outdated workstation computers - Incredibly loud, open work environment, and very few quiet areas or times - You will get caught in the crossfire of a nerf-gun at any given moment - Constant interruption, and you are encouraged to interrupt people while they are working to get them do things for you - Disorganized communication structures where people aren't aware of decisions being made - CEO doesn't care about the quality of the product, just a constant push to release anything and everything no matter the quality - just to make money - Management often reorganizes the entire technology department, resulting in delays - A project may be given to you with an arbitrary, short timeline that has no basis in reality - and then you'll be blamed for not delivering on time. - Lack of innovation in technology, very little individual autonomy - Barely any room for career advancement - Takes forever to get access to anything you need to do your job - Bloated corporate structure that badly tries to act like a startup. - If you express any concerns about company culture, it is very likely you will be fired in the next wave - Scrum masters that try to micromanage you - Free Company Branded Fidget Spinners
