Pros

I guess it depends on the team, but in general I feel that the people are happy working here and exist a great environment to work. The company really cares about the people, they are inclusive (in all senses). The sharing knowledge is constant, the events are usual and amazing. The most common slogan here is “to share is to care”, and I really think they do it. The company is growing a lot and it’s a good moment to join. Every X months you receive an email sharing that some has been promoted. Something important to remark is that the hierarchy exist but is not remarked every day (this is important because the managers and PO, at least for me, are nice, comprehensive and close people). Also remark that there is no culture to work from 9 to 9 (no extra hours) and they respect work rhythms coherently. At least in my team. Regarding the salaries I think they are in the market salaries (at least in my case). Finally, PRO (but CON as well), the complexity is huge. The “product” is huge and the things you can do seems to be infinite. So, it’s normal to spend some months to start feeling minimum comfortable with the terminology, functionality, etc. For instance, the onboarding trainings spends 2/3 weeks, and it’s needed. It’s huge.

Cons

Even the company is trying hard to move on in technology, and IMHO the are in the good path, it’s still a huge monolith that is far from some latest technologies. That could be an opportunity because they are investing a lot on it, but in general don’t expect to find the latest technologies when you arrive. Have to say that exists other examples for good technology, JAVA for example, they are in JAVA 11, so good for Netsuite. Like any other huge company, it moves slow and they release only twice a year. Even Oracle promotes working from home, Netsuite Barcelona is not in that point. They tell you than you can do it once a week, but they prefer (and encourage you) to not do it. I don’t really understand it because, at least in my team, we are perfectly prepared to work remotely. Finally, they don’t offer free Fridays afternoons (“jornada intensiva” in Spanish), neither in summer. You have the same working hours all the year (9am to 6pm). To be honest, I think that this point is a problem to recruit IT people.
