Pros

Great company to work for. Has a lovely location in a greenbelt, most people have their own offices, but open spaces appeared as well a year ago. Excellent people to work with, there is a high concentration of very nice people.

Cons

There are some antique projects written in C that one should avoid, but again every company has those.

Pros

Good work to life balance. Not a lot of stress.

Cons

Working without much supervision. Poor organisation, management and hierarchy. Process overkill for software development. Constant re-organizations, needless shifting of resources. People are hired without a proper evaluations of their skill, therefore incompetence is prevalent. People are assigned to tasks they cannot properly perform, because of lack of tech skills. People are treated like interchangeable pawns. Very high leaving rate. Too many external consultants (greater then 50%)
