Pros
- They attempt to be an agile company - Huge learning curve - Opportunity to work with some very nice and talented people - Multicultural environment - Nice/well-located offices - Summer working hours (just summer months)
Cons
- Really poor wages with only salary and performance-based bonus which the company makes as difficult as possible to achieve. No other perks and no overtime pay. - No payrises. You have to fight for one by getting an offer elsewhere and threaten to leave. Quite often the company will just let you go. - Company completely out of touch with employees. Recently gave themselves a large pat on the back for launching some non-financial award inititives aimed at boosting employee moral (actually laughable). - Old fashioned business model and very slow in adopting (well-needed) changes. - Focus on talent acquisition not retaining talent. People leave the company in droves as a result. - Fast-paced, political, aggressive and competitive environment, driven by each team having different goals. Poor collaboration/communication as a result. - Team leads/middle management that are either incompetent, bullies or both. No opportunity to give bottom up input for some well-needed feedback. Full transparency in hiring processes for normal employees, not the case for management. - CEO that publicy humilliates employees in global updates. - Huge workload and very stressful environment with more focus on quantity than quality. Pressure to deliver as quickly as possible making you almost feel bullied. - False promises for your career path and stagnation due to specialisation because of hefty workload. - No possibility of promotion due to too excess middle management. - Company focus on fast results rather than long-term vision. - Barely any training (reserved for management)/onboarding program poor (almost non-existent).
