Pros

There are quite a few outstanding employees who are also great individuals and who are a pleasure to be around. The salary is appropriate for a company of this size.

Cons

Top management is disastrous in my opinion. I think they hardly make any decisions, they do not set a clear (product) strategy and primarily do what is beneficial to them. Extremely sales-driven – in my opinion this is not a tech company. I feel that motivation is stifled by a lack of trust, freedom, appreciation and too many processes. In my view, this is definitely not a workplace for ambitious people!

Pros

There are interesting challenges to work on where you get the time to look into things to understand them, lots of potential to grow and great colleagues which are very helpful and supportive. You have the option of working remotely.

Cons

The company as a whole does not feel very organised and it feels like there's not really a common aligned long-term plan. Management is afraid to make decisions or trusting the teams to make some decicions themselves, sometimes taking weeks if not months to decide on something which leads to frustration in the teams. Company values were non-existent when I started and something we tried on implementing, however, despite really great efforts from a team of people these values are only really lived by some in the company and that certainly doesn't include management. Management also only ever seems to act on something when it's already way too late making matters sometimes worse. The company is trying to compete on the european market, however paying wages which can at best compete with the local area. I had to basically fight for over a year to get a tool I said was essential and absolutely crucial for proper error reporting. Suffice to say, when I left the company the tool was still not provided. The company unfortunately burns talent by the talent going all out and doing their very best even above what they need to and the company not honoring this appropriately if at all thus leading to people doing the bare minimum or leaving the company outright.
