Pros
Initially, you feel empowered as you are given what you thought is the freedom to mould and shape a team.
Cons
Management lacks cohesiveness and direction of where the company is going. As soon as someone is seen as not performing as expected in their eyes or makes a mistake, out you go! Poor planning and non-existent communication with employees. The founders themselves have difficulty communicating honestly and openly with each other and have exclusivity when it comes to discussing employee performance behind their backs instead of thinking of ways to resolve it together. I've witnessed employees getting fired every week due to a sudden "lack of budget." Honestly, I believe this is due to poor planning on the management's side when it comes to hiring. Don't expect to build a career with this company. There have been no less than 5 employees who've come and gone within the span of a few weeks. Regardless of your position, you will be offered a self-employment contract that offers no benefits or holidays. As much as they market flexible working hours, you are expected to be at reach 24/7 including weekends. The fact that they offer self-employment contracts for positions that you would usually have a "normal" contract for is already reason to question their stance on how much they actually care. Employees get zero protection.
