Amazing benefits that cannot make up for how bad everything else is - Software Developer Nexus Innovations Employee Review

Pros

Unlimited flexibility. Unlimited paid vacation. (Bonus: If you are the CEO, you get unlimited failures too.) Great colleagues. Great working space. The emphasis given to employees’ well being is no joke. This is one of the best companies out there that truly cares about its employees (but they do not yet understand software developers). The company's founder (not to be confused with the CEO), Stephane, is really sweet. He is the core of nexus. The company's unsung hero.

Cons

Management is slow to react. Compensation is not as "competitive" as they claim. The projects are not "cool" nor "fun". A lot of legacy code, a lot of projects that developers do not want to work on. They put in place a plan for career advancement... after more than 15 of the most talented people left in the first half of 2021 (and no, naming 10 tech leads out of the blue weeks after all departures does not count). They talk a lot about transparency, but it is only there when good things happen. As soon as an awkward conversation needs to happen, transparency is nowhere to be found. All higher ups are the CEO's friends or ex-colleagues from previous companies. So if you are a junior developer starting at nexus, good luck climbing that ladder. The sad truth is, if you are a junior developer ready to learn new, exciting things, this might not be the place for you. If you are an experienced developer interested in learning the hottest tech, this might not be the place for you. If you are a frontend developer, this might not be the place for you. If you want to work in a diverse, safe space, this might not be the place for you.
