Pros

There are many good people around to learn from. Strong use of MySQL, there are many training offered by company.

Cons

They have a chaotic way of implementing software. They break a big task into many small tasks, which can be implemented by different people and there is no documentation to make sense of the code.

Pros

- awesome colleagues - informal atmosphere - lots of opportunities as long as you are interested in them - growing fast - multinational - great location - cool premises, above average canteen, for the Dutch standarts - regular fun events

Cons

Everything is treated as an experiment to prove if it’s efficient in the short term. If its not, it gets discarded. This includes people too: as long as you are full of energy and initiative, things are rolling, but if for some reason you lose the heart, you’ll get replaced by someone with more energy available. So when you feel that you lose the focus, be proactive and find a way to stay motivated, or get lost. On the grander scale of things, the whole company development is the living example of how to develop a complex system using TDD approach + organic growth philosophy, with all advantages and disadvantages of that.
