Pluspunten

The compensation was pretty good. Also, you're coworkers, while not necessarily helpful, are very knowledgeable.

Minpunten

- Extreme individualism. I once was reporting out our metrics for the week and mentioned a win that I had worked on with a coworker. My boss got angry because "He did most of the work". To be clear, I was not attempting to take credit for the work, just saying that it was win for the team. This attitude pervades the whole company. - Management and recruiter lies. I was hired onto a specific team, which I joined because I knew someone on it, and on my first day they moved me to a different team. Classic bait and switch. Had I known they would do this, I would have taken the other offer I had at the time. - Direct criticism under the guise of "being helpful". I was personally criticized multiple times both in team meetings and 1:1s with my manager. - Unrealistic deadlines and no work life balance. Our senior manager said, "you should fail 20% of what you take on in a year". What that really means is that nobody plans well and everyone is stressed because of the amount of work.

Pluspunten

Echt slimme mensen, veel kansen voor groei, altijd aangemoedigd om innovatief te zijn, groots te denken en iets nieuws te creëren. Competitief salaris en secundaire arbeidsvoorwaarden bij andere grote technologiebedrijven. 100% zelfmotiverende werkomgeving. Geen dresscode en viervoeters zijn welkom.

Minpunten

Je moet gemotiveerd zijn. NIEMAND zal je hand vasthouden en je vertellen dat je het geweldig doet. Als je constante bevestigingen van het management nodig hebt, is dit bedrijf niets voor jou.
