Pluspunten

Free Friday lunch (oops that went away!), Really great product, but needs some work to be ready for the big time. The founder (Fred Luddy) is a legend. Very humble guy, father figure. The platform is a golden egg to do some explosive innovation and development, but the company culture holds people and hence innovation back CEO focused on the stock price (perhaps that is his job). Competitive pay, Quarterly bonus, Opportunity to move around and do different stuff, good mobility within the organization. Company has lots of opportunity to grow further

Minpunten

Stress level is just too high. Most of the times the exec staff are siting in their ivory tower (maybe counting their monthly stock sales money). HR is decent, but totally powerless - they mainly tow the line with the exec staff. Stories of abrupt firing and people disappearing one fine morning are really true. CEO's staff needs to understand that the enormous pressure they exert translates from them all the way down into the company and makes a very bad culture and one of zero loyalty. If the stock drops, people will leave so fast that you will have a stampede at the doors. Stock alone cannot build loyalty.

Pluspunten

Free snacks Leadership opportunities Stable work given current ai market You can get challenging engaging work but it comes at the cost of putting in extra hours Smart and helpful people work here

Minpunten

Work can a bit boring if not on something cutting edge Dev experience is pretty bad, moving xml files around that contain the actual code, proprietary low/no code platform to build products Full of Indians, diversity is a joke in engineering. It feels like a cost cutting measure more than anything else tbh Very much a checkbox mentality when building products instead of long term thinking with quality and usability Doubts about upper leaderships navigation during rise of ai Pay is nothing near what it should be, especially after stock dropped almost 40% yoy Certain internal processes are difficult for no other reason than we made them like that, lots of reaching out to people for rqts, signoffs, adjustments etc
