Classic start-up issues, no structure, progression or training, high staff turnover, you are expected to work very independently the entire time which might suit some people but I found it difficult. High pressure (although not overt) and constant stress, overall quite an intense work culture maybe due to close proximity to finance sector (many clients are financial institutions/banks). Often seemed like all work revolved around frantically creating bespoke solutions for whoever was our current or potential client. Stuck on the same project forever as there is basically only one main project. No senior developers (I did not realise until starting my current job how much of a downside this is as a junior). Probably a great place to work if you ARE a senior developer though as you will have so much responsibility and influence. Small team and you feel like you are personally letting people down if you are ever slow/unproductive at something. Low tolerance of mistakes due to fast-paced and client-facing nature of work. No broader dev community or communities of practice (again not something I ever thought of as an issue until I started working in a larger organization, but now I would never go back). Some of these cons are just what you might reasonably expect from working in a startup though.

- typical start-up problems : high pressure, goals are sometimes shifting rapidly, less than stellar salary (though not appalling)
