Pros
There is a high degree of independent work, mostly out of necessity. And the lunches are nice.
Cons
The engineering team simply does not communicate, creating an incredibly isolated and disjointed environment. This lack of alignment is clearly visible by the fact that the company lacks clear objectives; priorities change and the team is often left scrambling without a unified direction. Instead of fixing the root cause and fostering an actual culture of collaboration, leadership simply expects you to overwork to compensate for their disjointed processes. Whenever you raise valid complaints about this lack of structure, management’s only response is to dismiss the issue with the excuse, "we are a startup."
