Pros

Most employees are extremely welcoming and kind, Facilities and office are very generous and in a lovely area of Stockholm, Good levels of trust and belief overall

Cons

Convoluted layout of the floorplan in the office due to the nature of the old building Slight lack in maturity around organisation and decision making processes by design, which impacts some people significantly more than others
