Pros

Young and dynamic company where you can experience a lot in a short time. You never get bored and you can see the success of your own work very quickly.

Cons

Unpredictable working situations. You never know what will happen both ex- and internally to accurately plan your next step. Frustration level due to too frequent changes rather high.

Pros

Casual dress code, friendly environment, nice office, flat hierarchy

Cons

No career progression opportunities unless you are married or engaged to one of the members of the upper management team, underpaid and expected to work long hours without any over time payments, employees who are good at sucking it up can be transferred easily to the APAC team and can look upon you althought they do not have enough expertise or technical knowledge, middle and upper managers are not equipped with relevant technical knowledge and skillbase, frequent restructuring processes and as a result, redundant people, although the number of employees are around 220, more than 750 people were employed within the last 2 years (just to show you the turnaround), useless HR, all they do is hiring and firing, that is all ! , no job secuirty
