Vantaggi
* competitive pay * interesting product space * light on process (few meetings etc) * flexible work environment (hours, remote work etc) * company has a lot of potential to succeed * good company size; big enough to be stable, but small enough to be dynamic and interesting
Svantaggi
* "my way or the highway" engineering leadership makes it very hard for individuals to have influence or stand out * engineering culture is feature-focused, at the expense of long-term productivity (e.g. internal documentation, test coverage, refactoring, etc) * workplace can be confrontational, with no HR to turn to when issues arise * the Victoria office, while pretty, is hard to collaborate in; it's loud and echoey and only has one collaboration space * remote employees are isolated; most decisions come from impromptu in-office chats
