Pros

You get paid on time at the end of the month.

Cons

- corporate culture : it has drastically taken over a once happy company - HR : they are not your friend. Whatever is said, they are not your friend - It rolls downhill : depending on your team, be prepared to be lambasted from a dizzy height for something that was not explained properly. Management wants the oddest things to be done. Expect to work overtime, but don't expect to get paid to do it.

Pros

Great people to work with. PayFast used to be an amazing company to work for but after key people left and was bought over 3 times it has no resemblance of what it once was.

Cons

Management lacks transparency (say's one thing but does another), blames developers for poor planning and delivery (where devs was not part of or not listened to by management/product), lack of professionalism, lack of vision, lack of trust and lack of overall incentive. I could go on and on.
