Pros

There are still great people from before the aquisition.

Cons

The company has a performance system where 10% will be evaluated as low performers with no objectivity. They will receive NO salary increase. Yearly, the low performers are informed to the C level before the "career conversation" with the employee. By the time the managers talk to the employee, the decision was already taken without any previous feedback to the employee. It is like a SENTENCE WITHOUT A TRIAL. You can see and hear frustration, low engagement, and a high level of quiet quitting. The company gave steps back to the stone age and away from agile values.

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We appreciate you being open about your experience. We are sorry to hear about your experience with our performance system last year. We want to reassure you that the goal is to identify areas for personal and professional growth, not to highlight weaknesses. In response to the feedback received, we've been dedicated to refining our processes, striving for continuous improvement with a keen focus on the voices of our team members. Significant enhancements have been made to the performance evaluation process, aiming to more accurately embody our commitment to nurturing and personalized development. We're optimistic that the improvements will align with your expectations this year, and we're eager to hear your thoughts on the changes. Should you be willing to discuss your experiences further or have any suggestions, we encourage you to reach out to us directly or to engage in a candid discussion with your manager. Thank you once again! Best regards Agnieszka Nasternak

Pros

The job could be interesting, and most of the people working there are very nice and interesting. The salary is fairly good, and they offer a hybrid working model.

Cons

It is extremely chaotic, with many irrational changes. Some of the managers are openly discriminatory and even racist. Employees can be fired simply for having children or for wanting to have children or becoming pregnant. This has happened in practice: they find countless pretexts to dismiss you and then replace you with very young, completely inexperienced girls who have not even completed their education.
