Avantages

Salary is above market rate, although they are smart with the stock options and you have to stay a year at least to cash in some of the shares (a way of keeping people on board who would otherwise leave even before a year)

Inconvénients

Extremely stressful and demanding job, long hours include more weekends than they should, continuous shortage of staff due to recruitment can't keep up with the growth of customer base, not compatible with family life at all, and burns you out fast. Some teams have less pressure than others, and people do not tend to stick around very long in the teams where the pressure and stress is the worst. The management refuses requests of moving teams internally unless someone is already working there for 1.5 years on average (long time to stick around if someone is burning out). Despite opening up locations internationally, they do not promote/allow transfer to other locations. Possibility for any sort of promotion is very restricted, they prefer that people stick around in their role for years, no matter how good they are (at least in Europe this is the situation).

Avantages

Free snacks Leadership opportunities Stable work given current ai market You can get challenging engaging work but it comes at the cost of putting in extra hours Smart and helpful people work here

Inconvénients

Work can a bit boring if not on something cutting edge Dev experience is pretty bad, moving xml files around that contain the actual code, proprietary low/no code platform to build products Full of Indians, diversity is a joke in engineering. It feels like a cost cutting measure more than anything else tbh Very much a checkbox mentality when building products instead of long term thinking with quality and usability Doubts about upper leaderships navigation during rise of ai Pay is nothing near what it should be, especially after stock dropped almost 40% yoy Certain internal processes are difficult for no other reason than we made them like that, lots of reaching out to people for rqts, signoffs, adjustments etc
