Pros
It's typically a very relaxed working environment Friday afternoons are dedicated to learning and development time Opportunity to switch teams at the beginning of each year, which helps you build different skills. You get to work with some really talented and friendly people. Annual profit share bonus is nice.
Cons
They haven't fully embraced remote work. Instead, they have a "flexible-hybrid" model where you're expected in the office at least 1 day a week, but your WFH/office split is basically left up to your team leadership, so could be more. Compensation package hasn't kept up with the market. Free breakfast and lunch, a good coffee bar and other in-office perks aren't exactly selling points when you're working remotely most of the time. Base salaries are also lower than average in order to pay for these perks. A lot of your experience can be dictated by your management chain, and I experienced both ends of the spectrum. One manager was incredible and supported me to grow really quickly early on in my career, while the other management chain severely damaged my mental health and career progression aspirations. Product strategies are generally pretty vague and tend to fall back to "add the features requested by large prospects" Annual awards ceremony sounds great in theory, but it's typically just an excuse for Sales and Marketing to talk about how great they are. It's pretty demoralising for the engineers who actually make your software.
