Pros

I enjoy the team that I work with a lot, and the work itself is well-paced. My team is very flexible about potential improvements to the development process, and they are open to all feedback. Overall, day to day operations is quite enjoyable from an engineering perspective.

Cons

The process of getting raises or promotions is just plain bad. This is not necessarily an engineering problem, they're happy to see juniors be pro-active and take on more responsibilities. The problem is that the company itself does not want to formally give any promotions or raises. If rising through the ranks and getting bigger pay checks is something you want to do in the first two years, it's probably not going to happen. Engineering is also a very second-class citizen when compared to sales. Company has metrics to measure improvements, but they're ALL sales related. Bonus salaries are a joke, in the sense that they haven't existed for over a year and a half. Company keeps missing their own targets, and personal bonus is tied to company performance. Even though performance is improving, the targets are unreasonable, since they haven't been reached 3 year halves in a row.

Pros

You will find the nicest and most helpful people out there. Low pressure considering the average in the sector. Haven't worked overtime for a single hour yet. There is a new and interesting progression framework based in values and objectives. Company keeps growing even in troubled times. The engineering team has exceptionally skilled professionals setting up the foundations for the new platform, and the future looks exciting. Opportunity for career growth if you put in the effort. No micromanagement. 100% remote environment.

Cons

The technical level for software developers is very high and you are expected to mostly learn it on your own. Some training is provided, but it is far from enough. Decisions come very slowly and with lots of friction due to leadership not exercising enough their authority when the team has conflicting points of view. HR team is an absolute mess at the moment, requests take long to process and they are falling behind their most essential duties. Onboarding for newcomers is not good. Salary is alright, but benefits package swings depending on the country between basic and none at all.

Pros

Some of the nicest and most supportive people you'll meet in your life.

Cons

Although Epos Now is technically a tech/software company it does not act like one. There's a lot of potential for the software with a very nice team. However, due to the lack of attention from the decision makers, who will decide what you'll be working on which might not be the best decisions from a technical point of view for the state of the software, the state and the environment for developing the software is not very adequate to the standards of other software companies in the industry specially considering the age of the company. In summary, for the same skill-set you'll be able to find a better salary, less stressful job with more modern tech-stack and more opportunists to grow as a developer.
