Vantaggi

#1- Full remote #2- Very punctual payment (automated by 3rd party) #3- Considerably decent payment (they are from CA, USA but hires from 2-3rd world countries, offering lower than min. wage of where the company is based on, but conveniently this exploitative practices translates to a decent salary to these talents)

Svantaggi

#1 - Zero job security - they're in eternal firing & hiring caraousel. Even if a talent perform well, they could get fired on a whim, which if they need to reacquire another talents for the same position, they'll hire someone new rather than rehiring past talents. #2 - Zero benefits - no paid leave, no overtime pay, no insurances, no performance bonus, just the raw paycheck (gross) which doesn't even increase every year. #3 - Way too fast paced - they're heavily understaffed, and this affect the quality of work that talents could produce. #4 - Garbage workflow rules - Imagine a junior that a little familiar with designing X, made a guideline of what they think would be a good way to do X, and then apply it to A,B,C,D as well which they have no experience with. It doesn't work and at best only slows down the process. #5 - Unsolicited mandatory overtime - They claim overtime is never needed, but very often people worked outside work hours to compensate point #3 and #4. #6 - Toxic management - they treat talent as expenses rather than assets, they will never attempt to invest in talent that may someday lead the company and only there to milk them dry before replacing them with fresh talent. #7 - Despite being "No work no pay" arrangement / no paid leave, they have fired people who took more days off in certain period, this includes if a talent get hospitalized, in a labor, got their house burnt, etc., that may put them out of work for more than a few days. It's an awful place to work, literally a digital sweatshop. If you get an offer from DP and from another local company or still employed in one that pays half of what DP offers, you'd be happier with the latter.
