Pros

Baraja was an amazing place to work. The workflow is extremely fast-paced with big changes being made quickly, everyone is extremely intelligent and the product alone is fascinating enough to make work really enjoyable. Before covid hit, Baraja had a really fun culture with frequent parties and drinks, lots of opportunities to celebrate.

Cons

Baraja took a huge hit with covid. A large chunk of employees were made redundant with less than one day's notice, and told to immediately stop work that same day. I didn't have time to communicate with my colleagues before I was disconnected from the network. It was all very rushed and took the company by surprise. The remaining company all took a considerable pay cut. The morale of the company took a big hit. And now they are now hiring again only 4 months after making so many redundancies. Either way, I would not recommend this company anymore due to low job security, lower pay, and the way the lack of communication or consideration of their employees makes me feel that I was not valued as an employee.
