Pros
- Convertize is full of hardworking and happy employees who like to make a difference to the organisation and to fellow colleagues.
- The web development team is continuously evolving and work with the latest technologies and techniques. Here we are able to progress and feel excited about what we're working on.
- There is a process-driven approach to team-working and project flow, including test-driven development, code reviews, knowledge-sharing sessions, continuous integration and even time for keeping technical documentation updated. The process gets better with each added team member.
- The satisfaction of team members is crucial to the success of what Convertize delivers. We share our thoughts, help one another and respect each others' opinions.
- A dedicated software tester ensures we keep our quality levels high.
- Flexibility is available when needed, whether it be working hours or working remotely. Some of the developers work 100% remotely as we welcome awesomeness from anywhere, including Poland and Germany (Berlin).
- The projects being worked on are very challenging and exciting, involving Machine Learning, Microservices and Restful APIs, browser extensions and mobile app, analytics, user segmentation and behavioural analysis, 3rd-party integrations, devops-related and much more. 2018 is going to be a fun year for the team :)
Cons
In the past I would have said that management is too agile and makes developers refactor more than is necessary. This is however changing as our processes become better and the product management, stakeholder and developer workflow is improved with interactive UX prototypes, a 3 year roadmap and detailed specifications for the following 6 months.
