Great place to work!

Pros

Unique business model. Actually makes a profit unlike many other 'unicorns'. I have a lot of faith in the direction of the company. My team is full of great people who help each other out. While the code I work on today is a bit old, the newer stuff the company is working on is right on the money for where we should be going technically. You get to work on software that is used everyday by millions of people. There isn't anything else like this in Australia except maybe for Google. The company is constantly growing so there always new opportunities if you are ambitious.

Cons

Like any successful software company there is a bit of clunky old code you have to deal with from time-to-time. Your experience at the company can change a lot depending on the team you are in. There are some awesome low level managers (like my own), and some more average ones. In general I would say most of the companies problems stem from the HR department. There seems to a lack of experience and vision there. They just feel disconnected from the rest of the otherwise awesome company.

Good condition but hard to adapt

Pros

Unique environment and culture, casual dress, openness, everything is up to question and debate. Lots of perks, social events, food, drinks, goodies. Lots of talented people you can learn from

Cons

Culture is hard to adapt if you're new, its heavily suited to younger male. Things move really fast and can feel overwhelming. Hard to build friendships with co worker as every week new people join. There's always someone you don't know. Can feel a bit hard if you have a young child as most don't have and you miss out on after work activities, events

Pros

Casual work environment, many opportunities to stretch your legs and clear your head. Easy indoor bike storage so it was easy to bike to work. Flexible hours.

Cons

Almost no actual work gets done due to poor team structuring and frequent employee turnover, I spent most of my time cleaning up buggy code written by people who no longer work at the company. After I left they tried to appropriate one of my personal projects from college, claiming I had written it while I worked for them. I'm still fighting them on this.
