Pros
- Stressless environment. - High expertise with Finastra solutions. - Floating start-of-work time. - Easy to get get day outs / sick days. Company provides an extra 2 days out per half a year. - Easy to work remotely when required however there are no 100% remote positions as far as I know - Lacking expertise in a lot of things. Easy to advance your career if you care about what you do and can bring new technological solutions in daily work
Cons
- Teams are divided both financially and competence-wise meaning it is really hard to get a person from other team to help out with your project. - Selling "solutions" to customers because those solutions are popular, not because they can solve customers' problem e.g. using "microservices architecture" as a selling point where microservices are not applicable from technical perspective - Low expertise with UI/UX technologies. Backend developers without proper education / skills tend to perform UI/UX tasks which lead to - Low expertise in terms of system design. Combined with "selling popular technologies" this produces big number of cumbersome solutions to simple problems. Most people are not motivated to self-educate. - Management doesn't seems to know how IT projects work. Most management do not have IT backgroud.
