Pros

* competitive salaries for engineers * testing culture on new releases is good

Cons

* culture of firing people when they disagree with the leadership/C-suite * CEO who threatens in all hands with phrases like: The people who brought us here does not mean they will get us to the next step * legacy code inherited without tests and so much coupling that delivering any feature without regressions is a challenge by itself * unpaid extra hours for supporting clients on different timezones

Pros

Product potential Yoga classes Free water

Cons

- Legacy project - MIA: Development processes - Company's management does not hold a deep regard for engineers as professionals - Unreasonable demands - Unhealthy work-life balance - Leadership team plays full-attack but most of them do not have the time to work, plan, inspire, behave. Self-promotion and personal accolades. - Dear engineers, your skills are in high demand, and there are companies out there that will treat you with the respect and appreciation you deserve. Stay vigilant and make informed decisions about your career choices.

Pros

Vision, flexibility, eager to receive intentional feedback, ready to dive deep to win. Inspirational, modern, energetic environment. Management keeps themselves hands on and close to team members. Willingness to make a difference and change all old bad habits. Senior management additions with global experience being a fresh and promising perspective. Demanding but rewarding.

Cons

As every startup needs the extra work of creating things from scratch or revamp legacy structures as the company grows. HR's role remains typical vanilla and sometimes not truthful. Too much change is expected but not communicated enough throughout the company levels. Older employees feel entitled, without putting in the work needed for this. A bit of good old change management and better people management would help.
