    By far the worst place I have worked in my career.
    The good thingsGood salary, office space, location, and amenities.
    The challengesToxic culture, no appreciation for hard work, constant long hours, including Friday nights and weekends. Instead of improving their process, culture, and systems, they lay off those who are willing to collaborate in favour of those who are misleading the leadership to save themselves from their poor performance. Avoid.
