Pros

The pros of working in this company are gone. They had amazing colleagues but most of them quit due to the toxic environments. They also had some interesting clients (and projects) that backed off after the top management changed. At the same time, the "flexibility" perk is also gone since the company mandates working on US time zone.

Cons

1. Toxic Management - the employees are bullied and humiliated constantly (mainly by the CEO of the company). He claims veryone is incompetent and no one works hard. Nevertheless, when he was not the CEO, these "incompetents" won a lot of awards and generated an incredible growth rate for the company. His behavior is damaging the client relationships as well, since he is not able to communicate in a professional and transparent way. He prefers to manipulate, lie, yell etc. (depending on his mood and on the interlocutor). 2. Travel perk advertised in their jobs posting means you get to stay to one of the CEO's houses (with him!). Don't expect decent accommodation or privacy. 3. It is mandatory to work on US hours and if you're "lucky enough" you will get calls from the CEO outside business hours and weekends.

Pros

I am so grateful to work at Retina. I've been here for around 3 years and I'm still learning a lot of things and see many career opportunities to come. In addition to the common benefits (health insurance, flexible and remote working options, breakfast and free office snacks every day, special lunch once a month, company accommodation, daily meal vouchers, others), the company offers unique experiences - the opportunity to meet US clients in person (the company is covering all travel costs including accommodation, airfare, meals, health care insurance, and incidentals).

Cons

There are no disadvantages from my point of view.

Pros

Transiris has provided me with an amazing environment for personal and professional growth. Over the last year, I've had the ability to collaborate with colleagues from around the world and across a variety of projects. Silvian (our Manage Partner/CEO) encourages exploration across job responsibilities and truly cares about the growth and success of his employees. I have flexible hours and the ability to work from home - Transiris offers a true work-life balance.

Cons

The majority (if not all depending on where you're located) of meetings are held on Skype or WebEx, so if you're not comfortable meeting with people in a non-face to face environment, working here may be problematic. If you prefer a more traditionally structured environment Transiris may not be a good fit for you.
