      Pros

      The company offers strong technical mentorship, cutting-edge projects, and generous learning budgets. Team culture is collaborative, and leadership is transparent about long-term goals. I’ve grown significantly in my role over the past yea

      Cons

      Workload can be intense during product launches, and there’s occasional pressure to work late. Some departments lack clear communication, which leads to duplicated efforts. Remote work policies are still evolving.
