Pros

- Good location and office - Nice people

Cons

- I had no support with my project - project was way out of my league, I had no prior development experience and cloud experience and the project was fully GCP and quite advanced. - Manager told me if "I can only shield you from the company for so long" great way for a junior to learn and develop...

Pros

Excellent development and working environment - nicely structured teams, supportive and friendly colleagues, determination to follow best practises and agile principles in development. Good communication over slack between teams, with social and relaxed channels as well, and a weekly company demo (that has sometimes been paused during covid). Also a lovely office in London Victoria. Exciting technologies - on the project I worked on we used a number of current technologies that are becoming more popular in the industry e.g. GRPC, Kubernetes, Golang Great support during covid / remote working. Management has done a great job of listening to employees and checking in. Opportunities to upskill quickly based on merit - working on young projects allow for more ability to upskill into areas such as defining the architecture and best practises.

Cons

As a relatively young startup things like management structures (e.g. line management) can be a little fuzzy, and projects can be intense - although these are expected Communication about company vision (e.g. variety of projects being worked on) can sometimes be lacking but has been improving
