Pros

The people you work with are highly professional and fun loving at the same time. I got the chance to work with some of the most amazing people who love their job and are excellent in their field of work.. Work life balance. Very flexible work culture with option to WFH. Senior leadership is quite transparent and BI (CEO) is very approachable and a really cool person. He knows the market in and out and understands product to the core. Did I mention free Beers!!

Cons

The new middle management values processes over people. Developers are expected to log times daily against each task just like you see in a client-billable hours company. This shows the amount of trust middle management have on Devs and it discourages to work/improve on anything which is not handed down to people. I feel that politics has started to creep in the office lately. People who flatter and smooth talk are preferred/promoted while other good people are bypassed or made redundant. Devs are afraid to raise their opinion because of high redundancy in past.

Pros

Small enough team that people mostly got along. Base salary was not bad.

Cons

Very limited voice. Constant fear of being fired due to how management would interact with you. They did not fully understand who did what in the team. Did not show equal appreciation to all parties involved in releasing a quality product. Alcohol consumption was very encouraged. You would be shamed if you did not drink. Strict 8:30 - 5:30 work day. I am fine with the length of the work day but flexibility of start and end time would have been nice. Benefits were lacking in quality and quantity. That would be fine if the company gave a plus elsewhere such as schedule but it did not.

Thanks for your review. You are right in that cultures can vary from office to office, so we have worked hard to ensure everyone at JA understands our core company culture. This includes all employees coming to Sydney at least once a year to get to know the whole team. In the year since you were there a lot has changed and we are extremely happy with the team we have in the US now. Thanks again for your input and all the best.
