Pros

You can make fun of the leadership. Because every one does.

Cons

Man oh man, where do I start. The leadership will hold a whip and ask you to dance. If you stop, you get whipped! The leadership is filled with bozos, who don't know what to do and how to do it. They make plans and then they make more plans. That is all that will happen, plans will be made, engineers will be put on a tight timeline to execute the made plan and then the plan will get scraped. Now put this in an infinite loop. The engineers used to be good. But guess what, all the good one's moved out just like I did. All the recent recruits are so terrible, that they need to be handheld for 6 months. But guess what of course the management doesn't care. So the senior engineers are forced to overwork. They give tiny tiny increments. You will feel suffocated, brain dead here. If you are reading this, please take this seriously. Also don't even look at the positive reviews. 100% of them are fake.

Pros

Growth - the company has found an area with deep tech where there is a big opportunity to change work experiences for working teams. Everyone is very focused on the business goals to move the company forward. Leadership shares info on how the products / our work is making an impact to customers, and what needs to improve as well. Product and engineering continually trying to improve those areas to benefit the customer experience. 2. Smart people - Soroco definitely has some of the best talent, I work with really smart people and diverse teams, it makes the environment collaborative where learning is a constant.

Cons

Collaborating across time zones can be challenging and leads to long days, but that is expected in a global company that is growing at this fast pace. This is pretty much expected everywhere in organizations globally. The work guidelines allow for comp. offs and flexibility to adjust to varied hours - needs prior discussion and planning with managers though.
