Good enough, but only short-term - Recensione dipendente - Full Stack Software Developer presso BesLogic

Thank you for your feedback. We take our current and former employee's opinion very seriously as we are constantly and consciously working at making our environment a fun place to work, as well as foster personal and professional growth. We like to think that our workplace is a collective one and that everyone can feel comfortable being themselves as part of the group. You are right that, in such a start-up environment, people are, indeed, working very hard. And they do. Our employees pour their heart in what they do and love, and it shows in the way they approach work, with dedication. Sorry our team wasn't for you. On the other hand, the (very occasional) long hours that we have had to do so far have been based on principles of individual willingness, desire to make a difference and personal availabilities. We understand family obligations, health or those other things that may affect availabilities or desires. We love the fact that people can come in when they want and go as they please in cases of, as you mentioned, going out for coffee, errands or whatever, as they need at any time of the day. In fact, everyone is responsible for keeping track of the hours they work in our time sheet software and payroll is based on these recorded hours and pure trust and integrity. No questions asked. We allow people to work from home and this would not be possible any other way. As for some of our products, we are currently proceeding to a huge shift to Angular 4+. It is a massive push initiated not by management, but entirely by the dev team. They decided and wanted to pursue this goal. We are commercializing our products with a great response from the market and we are benefiting from a business accelerator program at the innovation centre in Kingston. As we continue to grow, we have added larger and better office space. Everybody had fun setting up and now sit in a space and enjoy the large windows and views.
