Some things are quite good, some things are really bad

Pros

- Most of the co-workers are nice and highly skilled - Compensation is OK - Nice benefits - Tech stack is interesting - Massive scale of data

Cons

- No career progression if your work is not classified as "high impact". Meaning people with good connections will work on the new and fancy projects and rest will be left with all the maintenance work on legacy systems - Lack of documentation practices. Two years old Slack-threads and source code are the best documentation you can find - Understaffed teams - Constant addition of middle-management layers - Most of the middle-managers doesn't add much value - All the decision makers are in US - Almost no options other than ads specific roles in Helsinki

A company that treats you well, incredibly grateful.

Pros

The mission of this company is noble. Empowering anyone around the world to become the creators of their dreams with RT3D tech. My local team and wider organisation are incredibly nice. The positive culture is unlike anything I've ever seen. I feel fortunate to have landed a role of this calibre early in my career. The benefits that employees get from the wellness benefits, commute benefits, to stock options are mind-boggling. The list goes on and on. You are treated like a professional, with no micromanagement from my experiences so far.

Cons

Lack of standardised training can leave you feeling a bit lost on prioritisation initially, but I know this is something that they are working on changing internally. Flip-flopping of decisions can lead to a slowdown in meaningful productivity. But I guess those are the growing pains of any large and innovative company.
