Pros

Remote work, flexible hours, cool product.

Cons

the CEO, the management, the lack of support, the fake "speak your mind" culture I got a call a day before my first day saying my, whom would have been, boss "left the company" and this may "make my onboarding a little more challenging but I should be able to handle it." I had to onboard myself, with no boss, no team, zero support doing two projects I was told I would have the time to learn the programs. Instead, I was told to I was working too slow and when asked how I felt about everything, I was told "that's just the startup culture." Devin is also very sneaky. Being the "supportive CEO" he tries to be, set up a 1-1 w me as a 30-day checkin during which he made it seems it was okay to be open. So expressed my struggles with the lack of support and onboarding. The next day I get a (very rude) phone call saying this is not a good fit and I do not fit the startup speed.
