Pros

Great office, chill, and coworkers are nice people.

Cons

The owner took advantage of me and instilled empty promises In order to get me to complete his entire home site project for basically free. Developers beware!!! They said they would start me at 14/hr for two weeks in order review my skills. Not once in TWO MONTHS he reached out to me to negotiate salary even after I consistently worked hard to prove my skills. My only mistake is that I waited to have the project half way done to better negotiate my salary. I basically gave away my work because I thought Radim, the owner, had an once of decency. I gave my two weeks after two months and only then he contacted me directly to instill further false hope in order squeeze out more free work from me, since I wanted to leave before our first deadline. He then basically said he wasn’t even gonna waste his time to negotiate and told someone else to relay the bad news. He doesn’t even have the backbone to tell me himself or why.

Pros

The form requires to write 5 words for pros, but all I can write is "none"

Cons

micromanagement, salary starts at 160 czk per hour, 200 czk is treated as a "managerial" salary, the constant change of goals and plans, hard to get the budget for anything that might improve the workflow, the office we were in was a classroom (we had to move all the stuff if there was a class during the weekends (once every two months), although management know nothing about most of the things, they have the final say, sometimes you don't get your salary in time, final salary is usually less than was agreed on (they say it's net, but in reality, it is Gross or Super Gross), hard to find an accountable person for literally anything, everyone is told that they are "managers", so no people to do the work, but a lot to manage, most people working there are demotivated and just trying to get by until they find a decent job
