Pros

Super flexible working hours, free lunches twice a week, snacks, drinks

Cons

A cool company from outside, a nightmare to work for in the inside: - Too many unexperienced people working in middle/upper management. - Too many company politics. - Reactive approach instead of following a business strategy. - No real motivation to be there, everybody complains about the company and is looking for a new job at the moment. No cool vibe, lots of negativity around, no sense of community. - Only people friends with the upper management get promoted. - Very male-macho dominated company: be a man, talk a lot, sale yourself, and then you can get appreciated and promoted. Experience or skills are not valued.

The culture is great; everyone who works there truly cares about keeping the product alive. The people who work here are great people overall too

Resources are really limited, there's often a lot of organization change. strategy changes really quickly without structure
