Pros

None - it's hard to describe how wrong this place has it.

Cons

Everything - basing your management style on the wolf of wall Street isn't big or clever.

Pros

I have been pushed and challenged in my time here: I've developed and grown so much! The standards are high. I'm surrounded by so many extremely talented individuals who take pride in what what they do and care about each other, this is why I'm able to bring my whole self to work here. As a leader it enjoy helping people and teams develop and grow - here I am given the freedom and capacity to do so. Yeah there's free lunches twice a week, weekly vending machine allowance, games room, and regular social events, and these perks are great...but we also use our facilities and food budget to support local tech meetups and give back to the local communities, and this is something I'm proud to be a part of.

Cons

It's not all sunshine, there is room for improvement (project governance doesn't always align with the agility and pace of the individual teams), but this is not only recognized, I'm seeing positive action in these areas, so I'm looking forward to playing my part in it...hence why I plan to be here for the next 3 and beyond!

Pros

Free lunch twice a week. Also free coffee.

Cons

Working hard and putting in overtime is never enough. Constant pressure to perform harder and do more with no appreciation.
