Pros

There is a lot of freedom given to the employees, and there is not too much pressure put on them. Most of the projects are split across the globe. So the interaction with global community is pleasing.

Cons

It is a manager-driven company. Most employees are mediocre. Compensation and benefits are very low compared to market. Due to this attrition is high.

Pros

Great co-workers and local management. Interesting work projects. Fully committed to AI-enabled software development.

Cons

Unwritten expectation for evenings and weekend additional work. Felt like upper management viewed us as costs, instead of people.
