Vantaggi
Company culture is second to none. The office is beautiful and modern, and is open and well lit. MacBooks are offered to employees, which is great. Middle management seems to care about individual employees and tries to make them happy and comfortable in their roles. People treat each other with respect and generally value each other's time. A lot is happening at this company right now, and there is a lot of room to learn and grow as an employee, if you're willing to work for it. Hard workers in the Tech Dept don't go unnoticed, and are shown appreciation for their efforts, including generous pay raises. I like the people I work with, and feel like I have a good team around me to support me when I need help.
Svantaggi
Ever since we were acquired by a large multinational company over a year ago, priorities have been changing constantly. Every month, some planned product feature gets thrown away, or something that wasn't important before suddenly becomes an urgent priority. The acquiring company recently and suddenly fired a respected member of our upper-level leadership team (I'm purposely keeping the details vague so my review doesn't get taken down), who was one of the primary drivers behind making this company such a great place to work. Naturally, this is worrying many people that things will start changing for the worse, without him here to guide the company and protect us from our new overlords. Thankfully, not much has changed negatively so far, but the future looks uncertain. On a lighter note, communication from upper-middle management could be better, but it has improved in the past year or so, so I suppose that's progress.
