Pros

1. Smooth and transparent recruitment process – the hiring experience is clear, efficient, and candidate-friendly. 2. Seamless onboarding – new joiners are given adequate time to familiarize themselves with systems, tools, and ways of working. 3. Supportive culture – colleagues and team members are approachable, helpful, and always willing to support each other. 4. Exposure to large-scale projects – the opportunity to collaborate on impactful projects alongside highly talented professionals. 5. Meaningful mission – the satisfaction of contributing to an organization committed to driving positive change in green energy.

Cons

I haven’t come across any significant cons so far. For new joiners, the scale of the projects and size of the team may feel overwhelming at first, and it can take some time to fully understand everything.

Pros

Some members of the company are the best people you’ll ever meet.

Cons

Genuinely a complete mess. Incompetent, passive aggressive leadership that repeatedly makes both poor and confusing company decisions. I have some absolutely crazy stories from things I’ve witnessed here. There’s things that are so bizarre and dysfunctional, they belong in an alternate reality.
