Pros

The vision is straightforward. There's minimal bureaucracy, granting you the autonomy to make decisions independently, though it's essential to act responsibly. You'll find yourself among high achievers, both locally and internationally, who push you to go beyond merely good and strive for continuous improvement. This environment motivates you to contribute more and aim higher. Top of market benefits apart from your top of market pay: • Hybrid work model • Unlimited PTO • Complimentary food, snacks, and drinks • "Work, Not Drive" benefit for productive commutes • Provided phone line • HMO coverage is "okay"; previously considered the best before organizational changes

Cons

The organization operates more like a "sports team" than a family, focusing on performance. This high-performance culture means not everyone may be a "culture fit." Managers frequently assess employees using the "keepers test," and you might witness both new hires and departures, including potentially those of friends. It's crucial to manage your time wisely, especially with the unlimited PTO policy, to avoid burnout. While these aspects aren't necessarily negatives, as they help maintain a high-performing team, they may not suit everyone's preferences.
