Pros

Decent starting salary (but not great)

Kontras

Where to start....... If you like having a work life balance look elsewhere. At Firework you're expected to work extremely long hours which will probably not be during your expected working window (unless you on the West coast). Pay rises and career progression are practically unheard of so make sure you negotiate a good starting salary. Moving quickly to be the first to get ideas to market is great but at what cost? Putting your engineers through undue stress and cutting corners to get things done does not foster a culture to be proud of.

Pros

The salary was livable, I guess. Office location was fine.

Kontras

The main issue is that priorities shifted constantly — like, you'd start work on something, get halfway through, and suddenly it's not important anymore and now you need to pivot to something else that wasn't even communicated until that moment. Expectations were never clear from the start, and I'd get completely different direction week to week, which honestly gets exhausting. You'd spend time building systems based on what management swore was critical, then find out they'd decided on a totally different approach and nobody bothered looping you in. There's no way to do solid work when requirements change every five seconds and half the time you're finding out after you've already committed time and energy. I watched several other people leave for the exact same reason, so it's not just me being frustrated — it's a real pattern.
