Pros

Great colleagues. Diversity was a core value in my team.

Cons

Poor leadership and overall lacking accountability. Low salaries. If you start here in a junior position it is made hard for you to work your way up and grow.

Pros

Significant self improvement/ learning time available. Working with some of the best audio devs in the business. A great deal of team automomy and ability to move position internally. Relaxed yet efficient working culture with zero crunch.

Cons

Salary was below the market rate. Sometimes a lack of clear guidance from people higher in product led to a lot of going in circles in meetings. A dev process overly burdened by red tape, code ownership, and knowledge silos.

Pros

Despite poor benefits and lower-than-average salary, I find the work/life balance to be good since working remotely became an option. We work on a product which is easy to get inspired by. For the most part, we have talented colleagues, who are very understanding of one another.

Cons

The company has been reduced in the past years, which makes our workloads intense especially around product releases. I’m critical of the leadership teams which have been put in place. There are few people to look up to for meaningful guidance. Salaries are nearly impossible to negotiate.
