Avoid it like the plague

Pros

Salary is not bad. Some people are OK

Cons

I worked for more than 20 years on a lot of different companies, and this is by far the worst. They dont provide proper training, or help. You are alone inside the company, and you are not treated like an employee but as another company that works for them. They will give you tasks without knowing what they really want. You must perform your duties accordingly to the mind of the CEO, which would not be so bad if he told you whats in his mind. No company values, nothing. Overall a company lead by a technical juggernaut that knows nothing about management.

Hi there, Sorry that our relation went sour and thank you for the feedback. As a young scale-up organisation we are trying to get everyone on board. We believe in self organising teams that can take decisions according to the priorities which are being agreed together. I avoid to micro manage and delegate as much as possible. And yes, priorities shift. It seems you have interpreted this as indecision. While my true intent was to lay a foundation for a two-way communication and aid in engaging you with the team. It did not lead to the desired outcome We do have a career management in place, and we allocate 15% of the staff budget for training purposes and skills growth. As things evolved, it was clear that there is a mismatch - which happens in every company, and I failed to align the expectations I'm really sorry we were not able to turn this situation around. You are always welcome to continue the conversation I sincerely wish you all the best in your future endeavours. Francis

Pros

Friendly work environment. Lot of space to grow and learn new stuff. Management always open to hear new ideas.

Cons

Lot of changes in a small amount of time, but this is also happening as the company is growing a lot.
