Pros

Small team with a strong sense of ownership. Tries to do right by the client, putting the success of the engagement above any commercial or "political" win. Modern way of working and methodologies, none of the "scrum bull*hit" that is bloating IT departments all over the world.

Cons

Handling time "on the bench" is more difficult because of the small team size.

Pros

Exposure to a wide range of projects and modern data/AI technologies. Collaborative team culture; colleagues are approachable and willing to help. Start-up energy that gives you ownership and the chance to make an impact. Leadership is open to new ideas and encourages experimentation. Steep learning curve that accelerates professional growth.

Cons

Processes and workflows can feel unstructured at times, leading to rework or unclear priorities. Workload can be demanding, especially during peak project cycles. Limited focus on formal career development frameworks (mentorship, training programs, etc.). Compensation and benefits are competitive but could be more standardized.

Cons

Speedy Pace: The fast-paced environment might be a bit much for those who prefer a slower work pace. Limited In-Person Interaction: We miss more face-to-face time due to the current virtual setup, hindering some collaborative activities.
