Pros

Good salary; Collaborative colleagues (in lower levels);

Cons

Unprepared leadership; Poor performance evaluation system (do what you are told to and don't question anything or else you will be poorly evaluated); No real customer-centricity - short term financial results are the only important thing; Poor support for newcomers; A lot of pressure, even to new empolyees during a pandemic with a transition to home office;

Pros

Lots of exciting bets being made, many growth opportunities, very smart people who also know how to have work life balance

Cons

Priorities shift a lot which can be frustrating, but that's part of the game of fintech (very fast moving)

Pros

High level of competence of colleagues You're never the most experienced or highest skilled person in your team Constantly learning and career growing Freedom to explore new technologies Very data-oriented Very technical oriented managers Clojure shop Well-tested, well crafted, always improving code solutions

Cons

Executive level decisions sometimes are big-bang and not gradual Promotion strategy isn't based on performance but on the existence of an open role
