Fluenta Reviews

Pros

Friendly, fun atmosphere. Interesting technical challenges. Pleasant working environment.

Cons

I don't see much to object to.

Pros

Great for team players and self starters

Cons

Nowhere to hide if you are after a free ride

Pros

- flat hierarchy - opportunities to take ownership - 10% flexible benefits (e.g. for pension or health insurance) - nice location - modern, open space office

Cons

- too much focus on processes and checklists means that the fun entrepreneurial spirit has been lost - heads-down atmosphere, no encouragement to interact with colleagues and no response by management when social activities are suggested - alright for lone wolves who do not mind speaking a word with anybody all day - bullish behaviour is tolerated by management even when pointed out repeatedly due to clear favouritism

Advice to Management

Get back to the drawing board and think about who Fluenta want to be. The company has changed dramatically over the last two years and is not a nice place to work anymore.

Pros

I guess you could call it 'dynamic' but that's just a different word for chaotic

Cons

Driven by a bewildering lack of understanding of development and engineering by the owner. I suspect it is in a terminal death spiral now and it won't be long until the Cambridge office is closed, and the long-term survival of Fluenta other than as a brand name is uncertain.
