Pluspunten

Social Events. Small development team but super supportive, amazing guys and girls. Amazing weather and island to be in. At the time I was working the office was near the sea. It is possible to go for a walk after work near the sea really and it feels amazing. You have a platform used to track your time, whenever you start working, do any breaks or stop working you need to register it on the platform. You can be asked to do overtime but you will be paid for it or you can then take that extra time you have worked later as a day/hours off if you need. The development team is split between Slovakia and Madeira being the most senior members in Slovakia, which is really good if you want to improve your English. You get a laptop, monitor, keyboard, mouse (quite standard equipment). The Chair was really good. **This is based on my experience at the time. Things may have changed since then.**

Minpunten

Low salaries (Nothing special quite standard). Low career progression. No focus on training and helping developers leveling up as management midset is that their competencies go away with them if they leave the company. You may be asked to do certifications but the company won't give any allowance to study during worktime (This was how it was when I was there). Almost no benefits or perks maybe coffee for free, and that was it. Management does not believe in remote working. Occasionally there is some flexibility to work one or two days from home. Some products do not have road maps which do not help to give you the long-term vision of the project. There was no QA team for a while. When new ones were hired they didn't do any automation only manual testing. Sometimes management tends to comment on your personal life decisions which are quite uncomfortable; At the time we were missing someone on the development team who would be able to lead all the developers and help them with the backlog of the products they are working on. New joiners for Team Lead positions don't tend to stay for a long time. However, there are some team members in Slovakia who have been working for the company for more than 10 years. **This is based on my experience at the time. Things may have changed since then.**

Reactie van Connecting Software

Thank you for taking the time to review your experience with Connecting Software. You mention several topics in your advice to management which we have also identified as areas of improvement, including automation and roadmaps. As the company continues to grow, we are focusing more and more on fine-tuning our work to ensure we can scale accordingly. Regarding the development paths, we do offer the ability for people at Connecting Software to learn new tools and have even requested more in our company news portal, such as asking for more people to go through the training to become Azure Administrator certified. However, we will take this feedback and speak internally about how we can better encourage individuals to continue learning during their tenure at Connecting Software.
