Pros

The company is made up of some of the most knowledgeable people I have worked with. I learned so much about software in my 3 years there than anywhere else. The compnay has a very welcoming culture and genuinely cares about the well being of their workers. Many companies I have worked for have management who say their door is always open, this is the only one that actually opens it for you. All the management are also engineers and are in those positions because they can do the job themselves. The only reason I left was to peruse a new project which I could not say no.

Cons

No toaster at the office. I'm British so I need one.

Pros

-Flexible working hours with nuances: They give you worthless "Scrum" meetings, just to control, with a scholar supervising you. -Private medical insurance (not first line insurance) -Some team building activities (questionable credibility, as your Line Manager doesn't care about your future) -People: In general you work with awesome cross-teams -For IT teams work fits better than for Sales team

Cons

-Board lives in a bubble, changing everything almost every week, no delegate. Company works because of contract won by other CxO years ago. Since then struggling to get any big new. -Authoritarian leadership, not much respect to Sales team in front of the others. -Although you sell or generate savings, you'll never receive a congrat. -Forget about the bonus, they'll never pay you more than 5%, this is something you discover too late, and a salesman guy bonus is sacred. Any excuse is valid. -Welcome pdf regarding company culture is only to motivate at the beginning, later on you discover you cannot conciliate in the same way if you've a family. They don't understand you attend customers at midnight in the park, just HR focus in apply same Mode of Operation for Sales guys as the programmers. -No Sales tools: No CRM, Salesworkflow methods, Salesforce...so you have to triplicate documentation in several places...Instead they push "Agile-Scrum projects methods", useless for Sales. -For a simple ppt you need 2 months to get the approval and 6 versions, they control everything you create although you're only pushing to make the company grow. maddening. -Immediate dismissal, without 15 days notice as in most companies. Just to take local people and force to be at the office some weeks. -High turnover.
