Pros

Relaxed working environment Situated close to the airport

Cons

This place is only for SQLite developers. Although they are searching for developers, testers in many positions the entire process is about to collect and compile data from many kind of database formats into a standard one named NDS. The compilation is extremely slow, code debugging technique is outdated. The office has semi professional layout and equippments, without any relaxation or chill corner.

Pros

Easy to commute, ping pong

Cons

- The biggest problem of that company is HR department, extremely bad HR: almost no knowledge about employees progress while influencing the salary, age discrimination (<30 means you are just nothing there, no matter what is your knowledge and experience), limited help and knowledge about expats. - Second biggest problem is lack of technical experience, very low quality code and architecture. Nobody knows how it all works together. Except the architect, and he is the only guru to add few more hundreds of unreadable SQL lines to another 3000 line function. - Third problem is hiring new people and very low salaries. They easily allow valuable people to leave while hiring a lot of fresh low-knowledge contractors or naive expats without knowledge about prices and salaries in Netherlands. Saving money on salaries while loosing on instantly changing employees without keeping a knowledge
