Pros

Company has carved its own niche in the market Compensation Remote working

Cons

Right from Board of directors to Manager level folks, everyone is insecure After the CEO of Cloudways became the CRO of DigitalOcean, love is lost and the environment is more of fear Like other dirty corporates, new leadership is hiring their friends and family The CRO has balance in his bank so he doesn't really care about anyone Normally the company that acquires has higher rights and authority than the company which is acquired. In case of DigitalOcean its vice versa, Cloudways leadership is dominant, Paperspace treats it's DigitalOcean colleagues disrespectfully and lowly No in house product development You will be successful based on your shoe licking skills and not hardwork CRO is a big time micromanager, all the awesome VPs and SVPs have left as no one want to work with him but the board of directors cannot see that
