Pros

The people are nice, but nothing else I could think of

Cons

The latest CEO is completely unsuitable for her job, she is basically an accomplice of the university dean, who is the boss. They operate with threats, especially if somebody is learning at the university (BME). The proportion of junior developers is outrageous, its around 5 for every senior. The salary is way below the market. Clients know nothing about this most of the time.

Pros

Flexible working hours Constantly trying to improve Nice office, good location, free coffee and tea People are usually nice Most of the time, you can use the latest technologies You can see many kind of projects They are not pushy with overtime even if it means the deadline isn't met +1: When I got here, it was very easy to get in from BUTE (BME in Hungarian) as an intern

Cons

The biggest issue is promises being made but they mean nothing, and then the management later comes up with excuses why it can't be fulfilled Low/average salary Sometimes coding starts too early and it has to be thrown out (can happen even with the whole project!) They are trying to make career paths happen all the time, but so far it didn't (but there is a new one, who knows, it might be the one) CEO person of choice is questionable

Pros

Kind people, great team (most of them left the company in 2021) Home office opportunity since Covid

Cons

Most of the time the projects were terrible. Usually, I had to work on things that make no sense at all. It was a common situation when they simply just shut down projects that we were working on for months, from one day to another. I felt like my work is always superfluous and in the end, I wasn't sure that this is the job I want to do or I just burned out because of the meaningless projects. On the other hand, at AutSoft the management doesn't care about the quality of the products or projects, they just want to earn more and more money in a short time and don't see further than that. They don't care that the apps released by Autsoft are most of the time buggy, useless, and unusable for the users. They don't understand that too frequent project changes inhibit individual productivity. Also, they are only trying to make a raise in your salary to become competitive when you're about to leave and when it's too late. The management is also always lying about the fluctuation numbers, inversely they say the opposite: people and transparency are the most valuable.
