SystemSeed Reviews

The company has a focus on social impact organisations, charities, and NGOs. I like that my work has a positive impact on the world as a result. We give away a percentage of our profits to charity every year as well. The projects we work on tend to be large and have interesting technical challenges and global outcomes. The other people at SystemSeed are friendly and it feels like I really know them, although there are many who I've not yet met in person (due to COVID travel restrictions). People are generally happy to help answer queries and provide support to one another. Perks include flexible working hours, a high level of autonomy, good holiday allowance, training and development budget, internal team activities (e.g. hackathons). Full disclosure: My brother is one of the two shareholders, and so I report to the other shareholder for my regular reviews etc.

Lean, mean and agile, in every sense of the word. Fearlessness of trying new things and always striving to ride the technological and organisational cutting edge. Everyone is here for the right reasons, trust is integral, and the whole team is on the same page concerning aspirations and priorities. The realities of software development can in the best of times be arduous, but this team of some of the sharpest, most skilled devs I have ever worked with always finds a way to break down and solve any issue. The clients are very high-profile and demanding, and the team is extremely astute and proud in delivering on every level. Ultra-high flexibility in work location as well as for taking time off and partitioning one's work day means that a developer is left to fully realize their autonomy in the team, in their daily tasks and in their knowledge acquisition. As a dev, there are few places that can offer more in terms of professional development and personal freedom.
