Even worse, look at their Android app - They made an overly complex open source image loading library which is despised by most quality Android Engineers because it uses parts of memory it shouldn't be using, switching to and from it is terrible, has a big dex footprint and often results in OOM crashes. They use runtime hacks and then complain directly to Android developers when something breaks during updates, their SDK is terrible and pulls a ton of dependencies, they made a "2D physics engine" just to make a bounce animation. Met a dozen of their developers and I have noticed way more arrogance than brilliance. None of them are the kind of people I'd like to work with.
