Pros
- Occasional company lunch where you pay for your own food
- Valuable learning experience on how not to be treated by a company
- Bonus management positions if friends with Director
Kontras
- No training
- More work than devs can achieve
- Deadlines plucked out of thin air that are non-negotiable
- Empty promises of a better future
- Staff in high positions that are dangerously underqualified
- Development is not optimised, staff that have never done development are choosing your tasks, assuming they all have the same skillset
- HR is only for the company, not you - tread carefully
- Ancient development practices to satiate one long term developer
- All complaints swept under the rug
