      High paying but pretentious

      Application engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - Many talented colleagues - Great compensation (Salary, bonus, massages, good coffee, decent food 3 times a day)

      Cons

      Claims ‘people are key’, however: - Compensation is often used as an excuse to be treated badly - More than once you are reminded that tech doesn’t earn the money. What trading wants, trading gets. More so, there’s a lot of focus towards public appearance, while internally there is only eyes on how to make more money

      Pros

      The environment is fast-paced and competitive, which keeps you on your toes and constantly striving for excellence. At the same time, the company fosters a fun and inclusive culture where team-building activities, creative projects, and camaraderie are always encouraged.

      Cons

      I cannot think of any at the moment.
