- Brilliant team: The team at Spiden is truly exceptional.

It’s rare to find such a high-caliber team, and I consider myself fortunate to work alongside them.

Cons
- Commute: One downside to consider is the location, which is approximately a one-hour commute from Zurich (by train). Luckily, there are several direct trains from Zurich HB,
- Fast paced, dynamic environment
- Strong team of scientists
- Photonics and biomedical Labs together with open space, cool to see progress on product RnD so close
- Approachable executive team
- Great culture of transparency, meritocracy and direct feedback
Cons
- Small software engineering team, we do a bit of everything, With the opening of the new engineering office in San Francisco closer to the product team, things will get exciting!
- Days are intense and people work really hard here, may not be an environment for everyone
