Pros

You work with smart people on a unique product. Above market salary in Hungary, great benefits, great coffee machine.

Cons

They want to enforce netflix startup culture which leads to burnout and simply doesn't work at a scale up, with more than 100 people. Recently a voluntary layoff was announced as the company's financials are getting worse, this was communicated very badly. You have to work net 8 hours, no home office or remote work. The CEO sometimes behaves like a kindergardner, doesn't believe in data driven decisions but only his gut feeling and his inner circle.

The mindset here is unlike anywhere else. Everyone is wildly talented and comes to work every day like it might be the day we change the world.

A good amount of ambiguity, for better or worse

Pros

I relocated to Budapest for this role and it’s been easily one of my smartest life choices. The office has a great energy and the people here are impressively sharp but low ego, always keeping you challenged and on your toes- in the best way. It’s a collaborative, in-person culture where you enjoy being around your colleagues and solving problems in real life. The work itself is interesting, I am always being stretched and have been able to grow what feels 3x faster than other places I have worked. To top it off, we are building something that will genuinely impact the world and that feels so exciting to be a part of.

Cons

Not a con but something important to mention. Shapr is a high-performance environment, it is a really fun place to work but one where you really want to do your best work. You have to be comfortable being driven by the people around you and keeping up with a fast pace.
