Pros

Booxware has, especially in the Munich office, a nice collaborative work environment, that is fun to work in. New products are microservices-based and thus provide a (partially) green field for good implementations. You also have the chance to work with newer technologies, i.e. Kafka or Elasticsearch.

Cons

Booxware - as a subsidy of Tipico - is also given the task of running their old monolith, which is little fun to work with and can cause some serious development pain. Since the sw has been inhoused one would often wish for better knowledgebase around the sw.

Pros

Working for a large betting provider sounds good on a resume.

Cons

Members who work for a long time at the project are very toxic toward newcomers and tend to create maximum stress for them, often nitpicking every minor detail during code reviews for artificial or questionable reasons which they can make up on the fly. The overall code quality is very low but company ego as if this were a top-tier company like Google and people are nothing. There is also a practice of temporarily moving employees between teams for a single task — and every team I interacted with demonstrated the same toxic behavior.
