Autonomy with a common goal - Senior Software Engineer 4xLabs Employee Review

+ Suggestions or ideas from anyone is welcome if it can provide value to the company. The CEO provides autonomy to explore these ideas and is available for guidance along the way. For newcomers in the industry, the company provides the opportunity to hone your skills and take on challenges if you would like to! + Relatively young team which keeps the working culture fresh, innovative and agile. + Great company to start out in the fintech industry. Staff are willing to support and teach each other. The projects taken up by 4xLabs is useful in learning about the currency exchange industry and provides exposure to other big players in the industry.

- Management can come across as too informal with no established process for regular feedback or performance reviews. - Market outreach could be better. The products offered by 4xLabs has been a staple for clients over the years which shows that it has been successful in meeting a market need for many money service businesses. With more outreach the products could have been more diversified to capture a larger market share.

- Learning opportunities: Business trip: the company gave every employee in team a chance to work in Singapore to see how the business work. Business domain: That was really great experience when you can work at a company and learn about the foreign exchange currency business, as well as the lean start up concept. The team worked really hard to get the requirements done and deliver to validate the business model. (cashback/sent message to all Money Changer, live rate)... Technical challenge: The product had some technical limitation at that time, however we worked to figure out things together and improved it in the lean way. - Startup culture The requirements change a lot, all the team from the CEO, CTO to Product Manager and Developer involved together and worked hard day and night for the release milestones, correct the data and validate business model. There are some stressful moment really, however as start up company, it’s unavoidable and understandable.

- Teamwork The team members was not really connected together. - Office space In 2016, we worked in a small room :)
