Pros

If you are new/fresh grad, you will learn a lot in the first few years

Cons

The company is trying to get its bearings so its not the best of places to be when you want to just focus on work and not look over your shoulder for your turn to be laid off. Management is clueless with constant changing of roles assigned to you and even the very product you are working on. Not the best way to instil confidence that they know what they are doing. Lot of talk in quarterly earnings calls but very little action. Much like a toothless roar.

Pros

Very exciting work, so much so I work 20hours a day. No distractions from silly/fun events. Food is meh so I can focus on work. Coffee is also very mid, not good, not bad but mid.

Cons

Not enough work, I only work 20 hour a day, I still have 4 hours to sleep. And on the weekends, we still have 3 hour leisure time. We still accept People who gets hired expecting to work only a measly 80 hour week.
