Pros
As a smaller, stable, tech company, Mate1 has been able to cultivate quite a few strengths:
- Great company culture and co-workers
- Lots of opportunities to grow and take on new responsibilities
- Diverse technology stack and projects to work on
- Great location
- Generous benefits package (including a large kitchen with free drinks/espresso machine, etc)
- Very involved and understanding management.
I would say if you're looking for a place to provide a challenging, diverse workload with learning opportunities and a great culture, you'd have a hard time finding a better place than Mate1.
Cons
It's a very specific industry and, as such, it's not a good fit for everyone. Smallish team can limit the amount of projects that can be built and released in a given time period.
