Pros

Flexible working hours Lovely workers community Very talented people

Cons

The company this 2023 has completely lost its focus. Major internal restructuring process that translates into chaos and absolute lack of organization. Mental targets that do not allow results based on quality to be obtained. New HR head with poor strategies to keep the employee community satisfied. A company that started very well, but its growth and ambition is slowly destroying it.
