Pros

- Good office location - Good office furniture

Cons

- Lots of promises and PR, but in fact, everything is very deplorable. - The company is going through hard times. But rather than admit this, the company blames the current employees and believes that someone new will come and magically make everything perfect. - The company doesn't provide any personal development plan. You will be only pushed to deliver more and more new features. - Managers actively use micromanagement. Employee performance is often assessed by the number of closed tickets in Jira. As a result - very high staff turnover. - Team leads cannot provide clear requirements for promotion. You need to "surprise" your team lead to be promoted to the next level.

HeyJobs Response

We always try to improve ourselves as a company and value every feedback. We appreciate that you liked our office and interior. Although we mainly work from home during the pandemic, we still try to offer the best working environment possible. At HeyJobs we implemented a mandatory personal development per employee, which is updated two times a year together with the direct manager. We always aim to offer a long term perspective for each individual in our team. In engineering we use Jira and git as well as our OKR system to organize and visualize our work. Which should help every employee to do their best and to showcase success.
