Pros

It is a great open minded place to work in Berlin. They have contemporary offices in the heart of Berlin and arrange interesting events every know and then. People are always kind and friendly and never discriminate. I very much enjoyed working in the distribution and revenue team and learned so much during the time spent there. Management is so fair and always there to listen and support, you cannot expect a better treatment from the management.

Cons

It would be nice if the could raise the salaries or provide some incentives as living in Berlin is getting more and more expensive.
