    I worked at DCSL Software full-time for more than a year

    Pros

    I worked in DCSL for more than 2 years; and, I really enjoyed my time working for them. As a UX designer, I was challenged to design and conceptualise for different types of projects. I was also given the opportunity to provide innovative ideas, and keep moving forward with the latest technologies. The development teams are composed of really talented and friendly professionals, who are always willing to... share their knowledge and advice. I got to learn a lot from all of them. Work is quite relaxed. It is important to highlight that we are not asked to stay over time. The company recently got a brilliant HR team, which is working on providing training, salary reviews, and more attractive benefits and compensation for employees. There are also social events organised by the company such as bbq, drinks at the pub, and football games.

    I worked at DCSL Software full-time

    Pros

    I've worked in DCSL for more than three years and I can say it's been an amazing experience. I had the luck to work in a friendly and multicultural environment with lots of talented developers, where everyone was really keen to help each other. The Company uses Cutting Edge technologies and who wants to learn new skills and prove himself on new techs is always encouraged. Pizza Fridays and Social Events are also... a plus. One of the main pro of the company though is the people, the environment is very friendly and Nick and Emily, the owners, are amazing and approachable people, often going the extra mile, when they can, to meet employees needs also on a personal level, which makes the difference especially for people moving over from abroad.

    Pros

    My impression so far - It's the best I've seen in my 12+ years career. All qualities which employee can appreciate are maintained on high level: - high chance for promotion, as company is growing fast; - management overhead is on acceptable level; - a big demand for using latest technologies; - friendly atmosphere in multicultural team; - management tries to give feedback for your concerns, being decent... and honest.

    I have been working at DCSL Software full-time for more than 3 years

    Pros

    I've been with the company for 4 .5 years now and can honestly say it's the best software company I've worked for. The sheer variety of different projects I've worked on is very refreshing, having previously worked in specific industry sectors. What is also great is that we don't stand still with our tech stack. Currently we use .NET Core and vue.js amongst other technologies, but this is constantly reviewed.... It's also without a doubt the friendliest company I've ever worked for, there's a great internal culture built around knowledge sharing and some excellent and regular social events. Since I joined we've transitioned to a fully agile company, that is constantly evolving to be the best not only for our clients, but all our employees.

    Cons

    Pace of change and delivery can be hard to manage at times, but ultimately change happens for good reasons.

    Really nice team, one of the most enjoyable jobs I've had in quite a while.

    Pros

    I found the multicultural heaven that embraces everyone and encourages communication and new ideas. My colleagues are friendly and supportive. My manager has shown a lot of trust in me, while at the same time has guided me in taking on more responsibilities. The open company meetings are invaluable. We are encouraged to submit our suggestions for improvements through the internal processes. The owners are very... approachable. I really cannot say enough on how positive experience it has been working here.
