Pros

- Some talented people on the team to have a good conversation with - The office is downtown and well located - There is a sense of camaraderie among the employees (not management) and they help one another face the stress of the day.

Cons

- Agile is just a word to make you work more and increase your responsibilities - You will be asked to work on sick leave, on vacation. - Insane pressure to deliver marketing and business goals yesterday. - No room for improving and growing as a software engineer - Many of the promised perks are actually not quite as advertised, you will have drinks as long as you only drink Club Mate. Fruits once a month. - Most of the people leave before they reach their first year - 99% of the decisions are driven unilaterally by the CTO.

Pros

Good hardware and location in the city

Cons

I worked for this company for 15 months, and I can honestly say my experience was frustrating and disappointing. When I was hired, I was promised that I would be eligible for Employee Purchase Option Shares (EPOS) every year I stayed with the company. However, after putting in 15 months of work, I was pressured to resign just one day before reaching my one-year anniversary—364 days to be exact (+ 3 months notice period). Despite my loyalty and commitment, I was told that I was no longer eligible for the promised EPOS because I didn't meet the "one-year" requirement. To make matters worse, the pressure to resign was intense. I was made to feel like I had no other choice but to leave, even though I had already invested significant time and effort into the role. I truly felt manipulated and deceived by the company. This experience left a sour taste in my mouth. It’s clear that they had no intention of honoring their promises or treating employees with the respect they deserve. I strongly advise others to be cautious if they are considering joining this company, as they seem to be more focused on exploiting employees than following through on commitments. Overall, my experience was a waste of time and energy, and I wouldn't recommend working here unless you're prepared to be misled and mistreated. Their online rating is terrible. The office is hostile with everything either in dark blue or black. Really boring tasks. Do not trust HR. They will stab you in the back.
