Pros

Some projects were creative and fun

Cons

It felt like the CEO only cared about squeezing profits, no matter how much it hurt the team. People were treated like unimportant cogs, with little regard for their input or well-being. The greedy priorities meant no effort was made to create a decent work-life balance, and the environment became suffocating. The lack of respect for employees as humans was not just cruel but made the job unbearable.
