Vantaggi
- Depending on the team - nice colleagues.
Svantaggi
- middle management is a mess (again depending on the team). - blaming environment - make a mistake and they'll make no mistake in point that to you loud and clear. More often you might be blamed for other peoples' mistakes if you don't keep evidence of your work. - lots of pressure from management: tight and unrealistic deadlines, underestimation of the tasks so they could fit as many tickets as possible - inequality in terms of work load - some people have nothing to do and some have too much; - absolutely 0 concern for personal development: no trainings (on site or online), no career progressive, no interest for upgrading / updating people's technical skills; - forced Hackathons - twice a year: management comes with marketing ideas and then developers are literally dragged into conference rooms, assembled in teams and made putting those into practice. The prizes are a joke. - Leatherhead office - everything screams of cheap low quality appliances / facilities: air con is never working: it's either too cold or too hot; toilets need unblocking or re-work often; daily fruits look so bad most of the times... - OPS team - some of them are lazy, some of them are incompetents, some of them are so arrogant that you'd literally do anything to avoid them. More often, management would never admit that - no matter how many time the environments blow up or don't build, or the release is delayed, it's not their fault.
