Poor employee experience. Not your place if you want to grow as a professional
Pros
- Good fringe benefits - very good health insurance and then the typical package: phone + fruit in the office. - Talented individuals, people from differente cultures and backgrounds. A good international environment. - Good salary
Cons
- Poor communication strategy within the company. Decisions are made and unmade at light speed and often communicated on spot, when communicated at all. - Noxious culture. Apart from good individuals that you meet there, you won't find the typical helpful environment, but instead an "every man for himself" approach. - The IT / Tech area is a very closed branch of the company, often unwilling to communicate and pair up with the business side to evolve and work on the company strategy. - The founders pretty much decide everything, so there's not much room for Leads, teams leaders and management to suggest or implement their ideas. They micromanage and even decide where employees will seat. - No career path designed or implemented. People tend to have a very narrow autonomy and responsibility, which is kind of strange considering you're working for a startup. This, again, is caused by founders that tend to run the company the same way you run a class from the 7th grade, you do as they tell you to and no more.
