Pros

Tech stack interesting Challenging Some really great people and teams

Cons

No work-life balance - Harness solutions to every problem, work harder, or how many engineers can work on a single problem. Engineers are expected to be on the clock 24/7. (In this day and age, Management can not keep playing the SaaS platform card). No room for engineering growth. Harness is building an engineering culture on fear and distrust.

Pros

It’s a paycheck. Good brand recognition.

Cons

Terrible culture. People fail to plan, then expect everybody else to scramble and spend their nights and weekends reacting to demands within ridiculous timelines. Nothing that you’re doing is so important that it’s worth constantly burning everyone out.
