Pros

Good pay and collegues, not much more than that!

Cons

The founders of this company are literal psychopaths who can't communicate, handle conflict, or run a business. They argue with their employees over small unnecessary things like small children. Very controlling culture where they want to know exactly what you are doing all the time, and all times must be reported in detail. And if they don't like what you are doing or don't agree with an opinion you have, they will ignore you and act as if you do not exist or make you feel stupid. Both the founders have a feeling of superiority over their employees and think nobody is smart, except for them. And they use that excuse to make you feel stupid, even though every employee is highly educated. The work tasks can change every five minutes and you will most likely not work with anything longer than a week (without getting credit for your work of course). Also, most of the things we do, needs to be reported in a report form and presented like a school, every week/every other week. During these presentations the founders feel free to insult your work in every way, without giving you feedback on how to make it better. Which make you as an employee feel like you are not doing enough, even though you have worked hard. Overall, this company is very unprofessional and very mentally draining. They have had many incidents with a lot of employees (both junior and senior) and caused a lot of problems that could have been easily solved, if it weren't for their big ego. More than 10 people have been hired since this summer and all of them is actively searching for new jobs or have already resigned. There is no structure in this company, and it’s very apparent. Some employees don’t even know who they report to or who to ask a question, whether its work related or administrative. Overall, they treat you very badly, yell at you and everybody else, slam doors shut, use foul language and can be very dismissive. If they need something from you later, they can suddenly turn very sweet and try to talk nicely to you. But that only lasts until they get what they need. And you can only imagine when you resign how they treat you. You become the founder’s true enemy and they will treat you accordingly. And this wasn’t the first time this have happened; they hire people every now and then and people either resign because of the toxic environment or they stand up for themselves and the founders find a way to fire them!

Pros

- I learned a lot during my time here. - Good pay, which makes it a good option for part-timers who work from home or students looking for a side job while attending school.

Cons

- Insane employee churn. The high turnover rate is problematic, I've never seen or heard of anything like this before. - As noted in other reviews, the treatment of employees is poor. The work environment is highly stressful and demoralizing. Although I was treated relatively well compared to some colleagues, I don’t know why. Witnessing how the bosses treated others was distressing and a significant factor in my decision to leave, in addition to the other cons. - The organization is very inefficient, leading to a lot of wasted talent and potential. Processes and workflows are poorly managed, contributing to frustration among all employees. - The bosses have a crazy need for controlling every aspect of the work, stifling creativity and independence. - The office location is inconvenient, with the nearest metro station being 20 minutes walk away. - Apart from the location, you will end up hating yourself going into the office every day. The small space feels sterile, there’s constant door slamming, and the environment makes you feel tense with your shoulders up by your ears constantly. - For full-time workers, don’t let the salary lure you in; the negative aspects of working here outweigh the financial benefits.

Pros

Nothing but incredible, supportive colleagues.

Cons

-Extremely toxic work environment and unfair treatment. Employees do not feel safe at work. Most either quit or get fired within a few months. -Shockingly poor leadership. The situation is so bizarre it feels unreal. Planning is inadequate, and employees are constantly thrown from one project or task to another with impossible deadlines and unclear instructions. -Lack of constructive feedback. Instead of discussing solutions, employees are met with reprimands. -Employees get fired via text messages outside of working hours with no explanation whatsoever. -Promised salary increases never materialize. -The company is in poor financial health and relies on continuous external funding to stay afloat.
