Pros

Strongly collaborative, Open Source mindset. Great technologies with enthusiastic communities behind them. Solid culture of remote work, plenty of opportunities for working remote. Very good work/life balance (depends on your manager of course). Job mobility within the company is encouraged and pretty easy. Top-notch technical training is free for employees. Depending on what you do, you get to create a new job for yourself.

Cons

Middle management in Latin America has not understood the Open Source culture yet. Pay used to be good, now it's average at most. Office perks not like those you see at startups.

Great learning experience

Pros

Great work environment with capable and knowledgeable people. Great balance with your personal life thanks to flexible work hours. Coworkers arrange several activities over the week, great to relax and have some fun. Besides coffee and snacks , you can get some free and healthy food a few times per week. Many interesting projects lacking people which makes it not so difficult to switch to another team if you are interested.

Cons

The process to go up in your career is not so transparent as it could be. Bonuses have decreased over the last few quarters. Besides promotions, non existing policies for salary upgrades.
