Pros

Great team and sometimes flexible leadership.

Cons

Rigid structure and difficult to advance. Many people stuck in same role, and only few get a chance to move through the ranks, unless you are already higher in the ranks.

Thank you for sharing your feedback and highlighting the positive aspects of your experience with us. We understand that a clear and consistent vision is critical for engagement, and we’ve been actively working to address this, including by listening to employee feedback through surveys, and more. We also recognize that leadership changes can create a sense of instability, but we are confident that we now have a strong, stable leadership team in place. The introduction of a new strategic plan and the roll-out of the OKR framework are key initiatives we’ve implemented to better connect employees' roles to our company vision and provide greater clarity. Thank you again for your valuable insights, which help guide us in our continued improvement efforts."

Pros

I can learn from and work wth a lot of talented engineers, who are eager to solve problems and make things better. We are building products for the top companies, using sometimes legacy code, but heading to cloud, which is great. We are empowered to use AI, and build AI supported products. The wage is decent, but obviously could be better. Perks are amazing, the office location is great, kitchen supplemented with beverages, regular team building events with food and drink. The community is proactive. And I think the career opportunities are also great. Still have home office opportunity, and can work flexible hours. I really love to work here, so far the best place ever.

Cons

Sometimes the workload is pressuring, and everything is important and urgent, so that could be frustrating.
