Pros

True remote culture Good tech Some very good people

Cons

The CCO has no clue what they are doing and keeps losing their best and most experienced people. CCO has no sales experience and has no clue of who is good and lacks any strategy whatsoever . Churn rate outside early employees is alarming. Keep employing people as they believe the number of employees is the most important key metric to success! Not winning any new business and haven’t signed any new logos. Just keep churning and up selling to existing accounts . Need to get their ship in order , they are very good at talking about how great they are and senior execs believe their own hype but are struggling to deliver. Lots and lots of in fighting between teams. There is literally no employee benefits like normal pension (legal min pension) sales commission plan, healthcare , death in service , insurance etc etc You get your basic salary and the chance to pick some office equipment and 30 days holiday . A once great fintech is struggling and missing budgets by a mile . Needs a major shack up at the board table.

Pros

- The tech stack, working with Go, NATs and Cockroach on CQRS - Pair programming - helps with remote only role on top of other obvious benefits - Retrospectives and demos of work just completed to own team - Challenges in the scale of moving to a multi-cloud agnostic solution

Cons

- The relationship between business/product and engineering is not very strong. - Lacks top-down design thinking. Could be a team thing but in that team it was very much lets have a brainstorm and then code - No documentation on the business problems being worked on, no doubt contributes to a lack of high level design. Also, no or little documentation on technical solutions that have been agreed upon and such as new architectural implementations or generally on how things work. - Pair programming. It's almost 100% of the time which is good when you start but you can't stop the flow of work to ask every question you need to ask about how something works. Therefore, you need to do a lot of learning outside work. - Culture might not be for everyone
