Pros

No advantages, you will meet some good people there who have been sold the same lie and they are lost.

Cons

Everything! The leader acts like he has never run a company before (probably true) and blames every mistake on everyone but himself. Atmosphere is of fear, absolutely no clear vision. Micro-management is pervasive at all levels more check-ins than time to work. You will learn how to create slides that no one will ever see. Any competent person or idea is seen as a threat rather than being taken on board for the betterment of the company. 2 company-wide standups every single day to report "challenges, successes, and progress" just to make sure people are online from 8 AM-7 PM.

Pros

Smart, inclusive colleagues from diverse backgrounds who worked hard and had fun, even in a pressurised and toxic environment. Some of the executive team were incredible mentors and coaches, too. I really appreciated all of them, they kept me going near the end.

Cons

The company was a vanity project for the CEO who had no experience in tech or start-ups. You were only as good as the work you had done that day and mistakes threatened his ego. If you left the business and had won an award, your photo was removed from the wall.
