      Toxic environment and impossible deadlines

      Software engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      • Remote working is possible. • Some people are great to work with. • Project ownership.

      Cons

      • Management is toxic. • Work-life balance is non-existent, you get a random message from people at 9 pm on a Sunday regularly and you are expected to respond or work. • As long as you suck up to the right people you have a job, but almost every week someone randomly gets fired along with a lazy templated and generic email notification to the rest of the team... You can imagine the culture. • CEO's mentality is to hire the right people for the right stage of the company, he doesn't seem to believe in staff growth, your job is never safe here.

      Pros

      Flexibility, fun culture, a company who genuinely cares about its people and upholds its values and commitments, creative, dares to push boundaries, great brand and products!

      Cons

      Hyper-growth can mean a lot of ambiguity from leadership.

      A dream place to work

      Marketing
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      This is a company that genuinely cares about employees and culture. Being a part of a company that is growing so fast is hugely exciting as you feel like your potential to grow is only limited by yourself.

      Cons

      It's a fast-paced environment so if you don't like being challenged daily to do better and be better every day then it's probably not the workplace for you.
