Exciting startup and a great place to work - Senior Software Engineer Gigaton Employee Review

- the mission is clear and the work is important. Everyone is focussed on what needs to get done. - the team is full of interesting people of different backgrounds and all of whom are high performing and fun to be around. - constant learning is encouraged and supported. It is an environment where it’s safe to make mistakes if you’re willing to put in the work to learn from them and correct them. - the operating principles feel close to how we actually work and they are useful in the day-to-day - the CEO is regularly heckled during company meetings, the vibe is immaculate. - leadership is very open about why things need to get done, what our risks are, what our finances are like and why decisions are made.

- we have an incredibly steep hill to climb and it’s going to be a hard couple of years - it can be a really overwhelming environment coming in because there’s so much to know.

I have been working at Carbon Re for the past 5 months, and I have completely flourished, both as an engineer and as a professional. The management team here want you to succeed, with a no judgement attitude and a forgiving culture. The platform engineering team is also an industry anomaly, with over 50% of the team being women. In terms of office culture, we are seriously well looked after. We have premium office equipment (standing desks, high quality IT). We are provided with a fully stocked fridge, snacks, and drinks. We also have Friday office drinks (with options for both drinkers and non-drinkers!) In general, Carbon Re is a fantastic place to work, and I am excited for what the future holds!
