Pros

- Friendly and helpful people - Acceptable salaries - Enjoyable office - Good location

Cons

- Huge unprofessionalism, no processes, big chaos, decisions are based on individual and subjective opinions - Incompetent management, they have no idea about leadership skills - The CTO/owner has intolerable behaviour and personality who micromanages everything - Anything is allowed to anyone, there is no consequence - a lot of people just try to survive - The company is not scalable in its current state, it works like a company with 20 employees (but has >200) - They lie not only to their clients but they also lie internally in the company - High turnover rate, many people are leaving (especially newcomers after a couple of months) - The company is growing too rapidly, the goals are too agressive, there is no time for stabilization, it is a bubble

Pros

- You can work on a lot of project and learn very fast - Management helps if you feel bad in your current assignment (to a certain point) - Presence in the US and in the EU with (mostly long term) travel possibilities - Company values are strong and while you contribute to the growth of the company you will get you recognition - Extremely helpful colleges and a company culture that promotes knowledge sharing - C-level management is reachable and if you contact them with a valid point they will empower you to contribute - Work-life balance is all right. You are expected to be agile (can have late evening meetings with US clients), but most managers/team leads don't care when you arrive in the morning

Cons

- It's a consulting company - you are expected to constantly prove yourself to non-competent corporate mid-managers - Even thou there is an initiate to be an end-to-end consulting company, the main profile of the company is still body shopping - Can be very unstructured sometimes and it takes some experience to figure out your personal goals - The transformation from a small startup to a mid-sized company has taken a toll on the employee experience: company events are no longer fun (corporate style), very rare and low cost team buildings, no-dog policy (even thou the office building allows it) - Career advancement is non-transparent and quite limited - Struggles to keep up with raising Hungarian salaries
