Vantaggi

- The people are awesome and super friendly, making it a great place to work.

Svantaggi

- Clueless and toxic management. Most innovators have left the company, and their products are likely to struggle to stay ahead of the competition. - Salaries are below market rate, fueling high employee turnover. Although the company claims salaries are reviewed annually to remain competitive, no evidence supports this claim. - A lack of transparency within the management team, with decisions and plans often kept secret. - The return-to-office policy (two days a week) is being used as a silent layoff strategy, with roles intentionally left unfilled despite claims to the contrary. - Divestment in products: many promising projects were abandoned before reaching the market. It's worth noting that the entire product line originated from visual effects companies. - Employee benefits are quietly being removed. - Most teams are understaffed and performing miracles to meet demands. - Management and company restructuring are presented as improvements but are primarily cost-cutting measures aimed at streamlining products. The end result is no additional value for end users.
