Pros

Hard to find any, but if you’re considering this company, it only makes sense if: 1) You’re in desperate need of a visa extension or immediate financial relief (even then, there are far better options). 2) You want to build your own startup one day and want a front-row seat to observe everything NOT to do when building one. If you’re neither of the above and care about your work or its impact, save yourself the trouble and run. Don’t walk—run.

Cons

Working here feels like participating in a morally questionable venture. Leadership starts with lofty, inspirational speeches about “transforming healthcare,” but soon you realize the company’s actual philosophy: ship incomplete, dysfunctional products and mislead customers who don’t know better. This multi-product company lives by the toxic mantra of “speed above all else,” ensuring that nothing we build is even minimally viable. Products are rushed out the door on absurd timelines without research, testing, or QA—often resulting in costly mistakes for customers. One example: A core product we offer routinely fails at handling even basic functionality, creating chaos for the customers who rely on it daily. Many openly warn us that our products have disrupted their everyday operations, making their lives more difficult instead of easier. It’s a recurring theme across all our products, and even interns without prior experience recognize this isn’t how a business should operate. Instead of addressing these systemic issues, leadership blames employees and forces them into overtime to clean up the mess. The reward? Hollow shoutouts and meaningless promotions—just bait to overwork you further to fix their mistakes. You might think, “Startups are messy. Mistakes happen, and that’s how we learn!” Sure—but not here. This company doesn’t learn. Leadership has been lucky so far, exploiting a niche market where some customers remain patient. But luck doesn’t last forever. The CEO and CTO are too arrogant to take feedback or acknowledge failure. Instead, they focus on signing new deals and paying off gullible customers to give glowing testimonials for broken products. To make matters worse, they surround themselves with “yes men” who lack both experience and vision. Some key hires are walking proof — no product sense, all politics, and pure intimidation. Delivering value? Fixing systemic issues? Building a culture? Not even on their radar. The company’s motto, “The day doesn’t end until the customer is happy,” is a bold-faced lie. Very few customers are happy—employees even less so. The operations team—hired as guardians to protect leadership from infuriated clients—is overworked, underpaid, and treated like slaves. At its core, this company acts like a reckless teenager, drunk on ambition—idolizing tech giants like Apple and Google while refusing to learn from their processes. You might argue, “Startups are all about ambition and taking a leap of faith.” Fair enough. But here’s the problem: Ambition is valuable when paired with introspection. When combined with arrogance and ignorance, it’s a recipe for disaster.

Pros

Genuinely none, but for the sake of transparency theres free snacks and lunches, and H1B sponsorship

Cons

Our company is honestly a mess and I dont know how much more I can take being yelled at day after day because our product doesnt work. We have so many intelligent people but we are consistently executing at the wrong level. All the positive reviews are actually fake. They tell employees to give good glassdoor reviews dependent on their hiring sprints. Don't believe me? Take a look at when all the positive reviews are posted. There are so many smart and talented people at this company, but dont expect for any of your own strengths to be leveraged. You will not learn anything strategic here. Managers have the same amount of experience an associate does, no learning happens here. Just firefighting. You are expected to work overtime if theres a new project, sprint, escalation or initiative (which newsflash- is every single day). I have seen people who have joined and quit not even 2 weeks later. The only people who stay here long term are bound by visa needs or benefit heavily from the boys club vibe of this company. If youre thinking of working here, dont. They lie about role responsibilities ALL THE TIME and will "restructure" you into a new position with no say whenever they feel like it. Everyone here is trauma bonded over how awful things are and looking to get out. Its not worth it truly.
