Pros

- Cool office with good infrastructure - Nice coworkers - Freedom to use any kind of technology

Cons

- Projects without a clear scope defined. Some of them are been developed for more than 5 years without going to production. - Projects tends to change completely the scope every 6 months because the only manager in company is the CTO (who is not suppose to manage all the company projects, even the smaller ones). - False sense of autonomy. People will try to make you think that you can decide about your product, but in the end, you can't. - Culture shock between IT product and sales/marketing. - Lack of career plan. Some employees will be promoted every year, others will never be. No one knows how it works and the excuses to not promoted people are completely non sense. Sometimes the only way to get a promotion is asking to resign.
