Pros

Central location. Payment on time.

Cons

Weak leadership and lack of technical expertise. Uninteresting projects without much support. A lot of work on company image but little interest on the developers. Other department had some motivational problems too.

Pros

- Office is very well located for Lisbon area. - Free water and some fruits. - Nice PC. - It’s a good opportunity for junior developers for a maximum of 6 months - after this period, it’s better to find something else. - If you are very very lucky, you can get some project on Symfony 2 for some months, but it's very rare.

Cons

- Overtimes will never count, and this is considered as a standard practice. - You’ll be working with «very» recent and an updated stack of software with PHP 5.1 and Symfony 1.4 - Back to the Future. - You’ll have lots of security and architect issues that you will need fix, or maybe add some more, because they don't care about it. - Nice project management where most of things should be done for yesterday and normally without well structured requirements specification. - Best HR department I’ve ever seen; they do nothing for employees’ needs. - The company’s schedule is flexible, but only if you stay after schedule to do more overtimes, if you need time for personal issues or if you arrive late because of traffic problems or such, be advised that you’ll be facing problems. - There’s no access to Wi-Fi, because it’s believed that is a security liability. - Forget about your career here, even on contract renewal negotiation; they only raise you if you found another company paying more I hope this is enough to provide an understanding of what this company looks like inside, with their lies and wonderful marketing, such as: "We are best place to work".

Pros

At least it has a microwave, refrigerator and water and bathrooms for workers lol.

Cons

I am finishing my degree in the area of Management Information Systems, and after the recruitment process in college, I was selected for contempt of Gatewit. An organization that says born in a university environment, was basically to get me to college to complicate my life as a professional and as a finalist student. Basically they are give me a word file, full of tutorials on my first day of work, and during one month they spoke only with me if I asked something. They said I would have a tutor to accompany me, but for a month the only person who helped me was my colleague's hand when I asked something. I'm just a newly licensed, but this will be the best way for a company to invest in a new member who just got out of college? At the end of the first month, as they do not want help in making final course stage, they fired me!!! Seriously they were born in a university environment? At least it has a microwave, refrigerator and water and bathrooms for workers lol.
