Pros

Nice and professional collegues, challenging projects and stable company, good company coulture, modern office in the heart of the city.

Cons

Fewer benefits each year. HR makes big promises, but you get little after hiring. Merit increase are just 2-3% for the majority, meaning lower real earnings due to inflation. The 10% yearly premium goes to only 5-10% of employees, regardless of performance (and the expectations are high). No career growth without vacancies, leaving you stuck at entry level. Recharge weeks were removed with no replacement, and decisions lack transparency.

not a honest company

Pros

Pays relatively well. Home office after the probation period.

Cons

Very old codebase, and no real chance to develop. Honesty doesn't pay off, and the company has a typical "everything is beautiful and perfect", which is just not true.

Pros

remote work, flexible hours, trainings first but then...

Cons

...no more trainings and ultimately dead-end job with really bad management. Not an honest word, just ongoing PIPs and then firing the whole team and replacing with workforce from the developing but ultimately cheapest countries.
