Great place to develop a career

Project manager

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Great corporate culture and people - some amazing colleagues can be proficient employees and great and interesting people. You can always rely on support and advice, cross-team projects in my experience work out pretty well. Great perks: healthcare insurance, hobby benefits, PTO, teambuilding, education. The company lived through the last years without massive layoffs, which is a great moment in these turbulent times.

Cons

Not very generous on bonuses and compensations, especially if you are not in the spotlight. Sometimes some decisions may seem inconsistent.

The company is small enough to provide opportunities to make a meaningful contribution There is a strong culture around building trust and taking ownership which really contributes to positive working relationships Leadership takes employee engagement seriously, and really listens to the voice of employees Work-life balance is understood and respected You are surrounded by a lot of bright, technical minds with loads of industry knowledge Leadership makes a real effort to help employees understand the company strategy, and how they contribute to it at an individual level

The organization is growing, and that means constant change. For those who see opportunity in new challenges then this will be a positive, but for those uncomfortable with change, this may not be the right environment.
