Pros

I don't have any, I left after a few months as soon as I received an offer from a different company. Some of the colleagues were nice, and I hope they will leave too as soon as they can. They are too good for that company.

Cons

Avoid this employer. They are new to the Portuguese market and will lie about their projects to get senior candidates to join their endeavours. They are looking for senior hires, but they don't offer benefits, the pay does not match the workload. They are pushing an AI agenda towards their main client, Google, but they completely misunderstood the project they assigned me on and continuously added more work to my plate to fit their AI agenda. They are supposed to outstaff you for Google projects, but they demand a lot of your time for internal projects. The employees who are not working directly on Google projects are just there to show face and waste your time with internal requests, games, or other things that will lead you to work overtime. The managers from this will 100% micromanage you.

Algomarketing Response

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. Algomarketing is an AI-native company, and AI innovation is not a side project here. It is core to everything we do. We are transparent about this from the very first conversation: every Algo joins knowing that building, experimenting, and embedding AI into the way we work is part of the role, not an add-on. For the right person, this is an incredible opportunity to future-proof their career and develop skills that are becoming increasingly rare and valuable. We invest heavily in making sure our people stay at the forefront of AI proficiency, and many of our team consider this one of the most meaningful parts of working here. We recognise that this environment is not for everyone. For people after a more traditional model of work, Algomarketing will feel intense. We are building something genuinely new, and that comes with pace, ambiguity, and high expectations. That said, there was a clear opportunity for us to better support this individual through that transition, and we have taken that feedback onboard. To anyone reading this: we encourage you to speak to our team and explore what life at Algomarketing actually looks like. We are proud of what we are building, and we are always looking for people who are ready to be part of it. Thank you again - we appreciate the review. We're sorry the role didn't turn out to be the right fit, and we wish you the very best in your next chapter.

Pros

Great Management, Values Employees. Pays well, and has excellent benefits (PTO, Parental Leave, Bereavement, Sick).

Cons

Health Insurance Offering for family of 3 (Parents + Child) > 10% of salary. I used private marketplace, so not a big deal. Need to keep growing, More clients means more security against layoffs.
