      Current Employee - Senior Software Engineer in Athens

      I have been working at OpenBet full-time for more than 3 years

      Pros

      Openbet has some really nice and friendly people. The company treats its employees well (at least by today's standards) and there's a general culture of openness and understanding which makes for a pleasant working environment. There are no forced overtimes, or excessively long hours, so you can have a healthy work-life balance. There are also opportunities to travel around the world which is a nice plus.

      Cons

      This company is "customer-centric" to a sick degree. The are two basic pillars in Openbet: 1) The customer is always right and 2) any technological advancements must be funded by a customer in order to be realized. On top of that, this is a big company. This means: ridiculously outdated tools, nightmarish monolithic code, bloated software products, lots of bureaucracy, chaotic communication between teams and lots... of repetitive and mundane tasks for developers.

      Advice to Management

      It's time to invest on the actual technologies, tools & processes used in this company. It's a company that sells software after all.
