Sold the soul to the US investor

Pros

The initial Portuguese mindset was really inspiring throughout the company. In the beginning the CEO was really authentic and a true leader, but now doing an act of smiling. The product is top notch and created by brilliant minds! It was a great place to work with a great atmosphere, but now we are only shouting it out loud.

Cons

The change after the US investor is significant, ripping the great culture apart. New leadership is onboarding buddies that do not fit the company culture. The disease is spreading underneath the surface, and I hope they detect is soon enough to stop this.

Bad company culture, bad office environment.

Pros

Nice office with good facilities, good benefits

Cons

Poor micromanagement, lack of proper training, horrible working environment (you cannot even speak). Everyone works extra hours every day, for free. Terrible balance between work and personal life, most of the employees almost live at the office. Even when you go home you are "on call". Control freak management, with no soft skills or training skills. Snitching culture: when you are called to give feedback they expect you to snitch on your colleagues. Snitching and gossip is the primary source of information. Crazy shifts with no proper rest periods.
