Vantaggi
1. They genuinely invest in your growth. "Hire for attitude, train for skill" isn't just a slogan here. I've been given opportunities to work on things I'd never have been exposed to at any other company. If you're curious and motivated, the doors are wide open. 2. The pace is addictive. There's a real obsession with shipping fast, and it's infectious. You don't wait months to see the impact of your work. The whole company rallies around tight deadlines and somehow keeps hitting them. It sounds exhausting on paper but it's genuinely energising when you're in it. 3. AI-first is real, not a buzzword. Gelato is pushing AI into everything, and the last few months have been some of the most enjoyable of my career because of it. You get to experiment, build with cutting-edge tools, and watch the rest of the team adopt them too. If you want to be at the front of that wave rather than reading about it, this is the place. 4. The people are exceptional. The engineering team in particular are some of the most talented and humble people I've worked with. There's no ego, just a shared drive to build something meaningful. That culture runs through the whole company.
Svantaggi
The pace isn't for everyone. If you prefer slow, structured environments with long planning cycles, you might find it intense. But if you thrive on momentum, you'll love it.
