Svantaggi
Culture - Culture is built with free snacks, food, and company outings - If you are looking for a company that has a healthy culture built around loving the work you do — then this company is NOT for you - The code base's quality is horrible and several parts of the software are stuck behind red tape which makes debugging problems unnecessarily hard. A problem that should take minutes actually takes days or weeks to debug. Management - Everyone is scared of the management and won’t be open with them - When managers aren’t around everyone jokes around how they don’t like working there and how bad their job is - Management knows they have had a hiring problem for years and software devs keep quitting - Management uses Scrum to squeeze productivity out of employees instead of creating an iterative product feedback loop (getting better though) Interview Process - Management will load you up with cool-aid during the interview process and capitalize on potential employees who don’t know better - If you interview here you MUST come with an accurate understanding of your professional worth AND the ability to sell yourself Benefits & Pay - Benefits aren’t actually that good - They have the ability to pay people well, but unless you sell yourself well at the start AND go the extra mile afterward, you won’t be paid well
