      Great Conditions to Work

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Not too much workload. Tasks are given enough time to be completed. Incentive to do the right technical solution (not a lot of pressure on deadlines). Almost NO meetings, around 1 weekly status meeting update. Company does a lot of things to try to keep people happy (free gym, free yoga, free massages), nicely decorated workspace. Lots of foods and drinks in the office.

      Cons

      - Hierarchy with a lot of levels (managers with only 3 or 4 people under them). - Very individual work and tasks, sometimes lack team spirit. Pros/Cons depending on your preference: - Indivdual tasks with not so much interaction with others. - No SCRUM, all tasks are assigned to 1 person. - No SCRUM meetings. (No Daily, no retrospectives, etc..).

      Great place to work

      Pros

      Good office space, nice perks, generally a pleasant work environment. Excellent food & drink. Working with talented, motivated people. Plenty of opportunities for career growth & development, and movement between teams if you're interested.

      Cons

      While short (weekly) and medium (monthly) objectives are scheduled smoothly, the company struggles to plan and execute long term projects. Tasks that can't be accomplished in a short time frame either are kicked into the long grass, botched, or both. This applies both to engineering and commercial. Complaints about a slavish adherence to A/B testing are also fair.
