Pros

Some amazing colleagues amongst the engineering team.

Cons

No psychological safety. No diversity inclusion whatsoever (all appearance). Extremely sexist environment without gender equality (ie: salaries). HR & management won't take any real action further to sexual assaults. All management needs serious training on neurodiversity. Lack of transparency in the company at all levels. Impossibility to work properly on products and projects: focus on quantity rather than quality. All employees are frustrated by the outputs produced. Clients extremely dissatisfied. No outcome focus. Feature requests constantly come from leadership with no input from experts. High flight risks and constant burn outs within the company. No mental health or work life balance. Raises given to people working extra hours (up to 11pm on a daily basis). Company strategy is not fully shared. A lot of buying other companies which ends in the dismissal of people. Unstable.
