Pros

Laid back attitude. There aren't many checks on the quality of your work and that translates into a good work-life balance.

Cons

Low pay and currently not being able to maintain their best and senior employees. High management turnover is very high (e.g VPs leaving after 6 months) and decisions are made not taking into consideration product complexity and what customers want. Chaotic and constant changes in terms of product - Management is clueless. OutSystems used to have a great culture, but not anymore. Nowadays is a culture of half truth and where if you complain your performance review will suffer. Company is struggling financially after years of hiring frenzy. As a developer you might end up working in support (without anyone telling you that during the recruitment process)

Pros

cool technology, awesome CEO, capable engineering and PM VPs

Cons

engineering/pm leadership needs help. the CPTO is not technical at all and has no product vision. However, the VPs of both engineering and PMs are all very technical and capable. They are limited by the CPTO though.
