Pros

Full remote company (as long as you work in Spain).

Cons

The company is full of poser people who pretend to know more than they really do. Talented people are flocking away from the company and only unskilled people and bad (sometimes even toxic) managers are what remain (dead sea effect). They hire talented engineers and later tell them what to do. In fact, this is a "managers' company" pretending to be a technological one (even in its name), where engineers are second-class citizens. There's no career path for individual contributors (engineers), only for managers who even take credit for other people's work. In general, the atmosphere is toxic. I started with a lot of excitement in this company and over time it's been degrading more and more whilst talented people leave the company.
