Pros

20 working days of annual leave Convenient HR system (BambooHR) Birthday leave provided Overtime payments were available Company provided a laptop (with partial reimbursement policy) Within our team, we managed to build an effective and collaborative agile workflow

Cons

Poor overall management and lack of clear communication Strong disconnect between leadership and development teams Teams had to self-organize to maintain productivity and shield work from external disruptions Termination process was highly unprofessional - access was revoked without prior notice or conversation No performance evaluation conducted prior to dismissal High-performing and productive developers were let go without justification Mass layoffs (approximately half of the team) created instability and concern Lack of recognition for extra effort, including unpaid overtime and personal time invested

Pros

Tremendous growth opportunities — I started in an entry-level role and moved into leadership within a short span. Freedom and flexibility in the way we work, which makes FP Markets stand out from many other companies. A culture of respect and teamwork where every employee feels valued. Strong focus on employee well-being, with activities that support both mental and physical health. Management truly recognizes and rewards potential, giving people the chance to thrive.

Cons

Nothing to mention anything in specific.

Pros

There are many good specialists, good benefits

Cons

There's a complete lack of understanding and realistic plans for how to manage the product. Constant chaos in processes. Problems with the HR department, or more specifically, with the speed of their work and responses. Business requirements change during development, but the business believes that development deadlines should remain the same. Management is completely disconnected from the reality of what's happening. Recently, 25 people were fired without warning or explanation. Many people who were excellent at their jobs, accomplished many important tasks, worked efficiently, and were highly competent were fired. Many of those who remained don't do even a tenth of what those who were fired did. I'm speechless. In this company, it's not how much you contribute that matters, but how loyal you are to the company or how long you've been working there.
