Software Engineer - Software Engineer Definely Employee Review

-Great company that has a nice mix of technology and legal experience. Definely is experiencing high interest for their products! Definely is definitely on the move!

-Working at Definely is a very high demanding job! As a young company, there is an expectation of sink or swim, but as the company matures more employee support and development will be implemented.

I’ve really enjoyed my time at Definely overall. It’s an agile, fast-moving company where you can see the impact of your work very quickly. The team is genuine and my colleagues are collaborative, supportive, and easy to work with. Leadership also stands out as people who care about both the product and the team, and there’s a clear sense that decisions are made with good intent. The pace is a big part of the appeal: things move quickly, and there’s a lot of opportunity to take ownership and shape your role.

The last year has come with some turbulence post Series B. Like many scaling companies, there’s been change and some teams have felt that more than others, which has at times created uncertainty. It’s also worth saying that this probably isn’t the right environment for someone who hasn’t worked in startups before. The ambiguity, pace, and expectation to adapt quickly can be quite a shock if you’re coming from a more structured or established organisation.
