      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - free snacks - ping pong and playstation - if that stuff at work impresses you - the chance to spend the office social budget on your own personal gains if you can get yourself into the social committee!

      Cons

      - little chance of progressing - extremely unpleasant, cynical, uninterested HR - awful cross-department communications - psychological bullying - favouritism - lots of stupid meetings - no belief in diversity or equality - its just lip service and box-ticking - London office is a toxic environment full of cliquey, tryhard, backstabbing people - regular redundancies and "overhauls"

      Great product & Disgusting company culture

      Manager

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Great product, nice office (great location) and good team spirit.

      Cons

      The so-called "Management", in the US with no clue about business ethics and European culture. Hire and Fire, whenever it feels right to them.

      Horrible engineering culture

      Senior software engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - Good work life balance

      Cons

      - No drive / boldness to innovate old monolite architecture - Making money is more important than user experience - Build + start time of frontend solution takes about 30 minutes - Managed by american employees, european knowledge gets discarded - No clear vision on how product should define itself within the next years - Tech teams don't work together, everyones is working for themselfes. They even compete silently against each other introducing different tech stacks. - Releasing fast instead of quality.
