Pros
15 minutes massage every 2 weeks. Kitchen very well stocked with every kind of food. If you want something different, you just have to ask for it. You have free lunch at the office whilst keep paying your meal allowance. Possibility to attend 3 times a week to a 30 minute body training class, remotely, in small groups of 3-6 people.
Cons
CEO does micro-management in the whole company. There's a culture of fear to those who don't share CEO visions / decisions / opinions. They sell the idea of a transparent company, but communication is based on secrets shared amongst the small groups around the managers and team leaders. The pillars of the company are: humble, hunger and smart. Managers and leaders are not humble to learn with people that bring some knowledge from other work experiences. They want hunger but there is no meritocracy at all. They even tell you that they value bad colaborators that bow to their wills the most, than people that does a good work but has different opinions and present new solutions. The smart value could only be translated to be a "smart guy", talking at people's backs and try to stab them in order to progress. There are 4 months forbidden to take vacations. There are 3 mandatory vacation days: Christmas and New Year's Eve, and St. John's holiday. You are obliged to register when you enter and leave the office (or your desk at home) on a company clock application. The office facilities are not great - really bad resolution screens that make your eyes burn at the end of a day, the tables shake when your teammate types on his keyboard, the air conditioner can't cool the whole open space in the summer. There's no remote policy. They want to bring people back to the office as soon as the government let them. You'll probably just work from home while COVID pandemic is happening. There is a heavy legacy, both in back-end and front-end, and it's never a priority to address the technical debts. You're encouraged to grow that techinal debt with more problems, trying to obfuscate them with duplicated databases or endpoints, paralel flows, lots of different id's for the same entity, flags everywhere, etc.
