Pros

- RSUs - That's it - Nothing else, just RSUs

Cons

- Bad Culture. No culture at all. - Very very eager to lay anyone off. Want to acquire and just kill the company. - Compulsory 5 days WFO. - Attendance tracked, infact everything tracked. Every key stroke. - No concept for Work Life Balance - Feels like you're working in a labor camp in WW2 times. - All employer friendly policies, no employee friendly policies.
