As a company of 70 people with customers in the US, EU and Asia Pacific, we hope there is and will be ample opportunity to grow as we expand our business. For engineering in particular, We are recruiting for a number of roles which can mean new technical exposure or leadership roles should skills and qualities fit for internal moves. Structurally we have engineers who work in teams with project/product managers, the CTO and ultimately the CEO. It is a flat and collaborative environment. At the same time there is direction and a set of goals, as with any company, and probably rightly this is more top down than bottom up. We have Friday Project-X (virtual and in person) sessions where creative muscles are most welcome. Ideas here can be carried forward with a test and fail or succeed and grow construct. Anyone with a hot idea is most welcome to join. Fact check note: at this time we are unable to substantiate you are an employee of more than 3 years at Flexxon.

Pros

Working here is no joke — the standards are high, and the culture expects you to run things like it’s your own business. Not everyone can tahan, but for those who are self-driven and serious about doing meaningful work, it’s a very rewarding place. The environment pushes you to think big, act fast, and take full ownership.

Cons

This is not a “9-to-5, just follow instructions” kind of place. Here, you need to bring ideas, take initiative, and be ready to stretch yourself. The bar is tough, but that’s exactly what makes the culture strong. Even the challenges turn into opportunities to grow. If you’re someone who wants to play safe and cruise, maybe not for you. But if you want to step up and be part of something game-changing, this is the place.

Pros

Hardly any. Short runway, unreasonable expectations.

Cons

As sales, if things can sell then commissions are good. Otherwise, eat nothing, and become our fault. Historically, what are the performance of the products anyway? If things are not good, how to sell? Behind closed door, lots of arrows flying across departments. Someone told me; here, you are 'guilty until you prove yourself innocent'. Be ready to defend yourself. High turnovers. Even if you managed to stay years, eventually your time will come as everybody is considered expandable.
