Pros

Remote-friendly with office optional Most people working there are nice Space for a lot of knowledge sharing Great range of benefits: option for food card, small wellness allowance, wellness app subscriptions, sick leave paid in full You can learn to do a lot of independent work and projects

Cons

Middle managers give priority to friends on promotion path, a salary increase of more than 4% is almost impossible Some managers will override company-wide policies like flexible work and no-meeting Fridays Managers are very hard to get in contact with, as they seem to have a calendar full of meetings
