Wolf in sheeps clothing - Software Developer Rubixx Employee Review

Good work environment with a great work life balance.

Building is very very leaky.

I've been with Rubixx for 3 years now and it has been extremely rewarding to be part of their early growth. When I started we hadn't shipped the Housing or Accounts products and so compensation was lower than other roles but the opportunities provided to Junior Developers was great. Now we've shipped products compensation is a lot better and competitive for all employees a year or two into their careers AND the brilliant opportunities are still available. If you're looking to start your career with a challenge that provides great learning potential this is the place to be. The team atmosphere has always been my favourite part of working for Rubixx, everyone is extremely friendly and looking to help out. Coming to work is a enjoy because of this helping to make work life balance very easy, something their flexible working policies help with too. The business has been growing rapidly over the last year with an expanded office on the way and new faces. This has helped keep everything feeling fresh and has come with better support for new developers as the team is a lot bigger so has more time to train newcomers.

There isn't much I am unhappy with working for Rubixx but perfection is impossible to attain. Flexible working is great but the WFH policy is very restrictive when compared to a lot of other software companies. Currently the team is limited to a max of 2 people WFH a day and you get one day a week. I'd like to see more days and less restriction here to bring it inline with more modern workplaces. I wasn't sure how to spin this but felt most would see it as a con so put it here, for Junior developers the starting pay is way below averages even excluding big cities but the flip side of this is the company takes chances on unproven talent and provides you with great support that has led to most seeing competitive pay within their first year. You might find better paying jobs for Junior roles but I don't think many would match the opportunities provided by Rubixx.
