Pros
Good work-life balance, good annual bonus, and annual events that help motivate employees. The people are friendly, and the work environment is generally positive. There is no discrimination based on language barriers, which makes it comfortable to work with different teams and cultures. Overall, it is a nice and supportive environment.
Cons
As the company expands, different cultures and ways of working are coming together, and sometimes it feels like office politics is increasing. It can feel like only certain groups of people are heard. The appraisal and promotion process could be more transparent. Sometimes it feels like people who do more tech talks or company events get more recognition than those who deliver strong day-to-day performance. Promotion nominations should be based more on direct work contribution and clear performance evidence, not personal connections. Salary increments are also quite low, which may not feel fair compared to workload, performance, and market expectations. Although there are learning opportunities, many technologies feel outdated. The security restrictions also make it difficult to explore new tools and modern technologies. The work environment is very comfortable, which is good, but it can also push employees too much into a comfort zone and reduce faster career growth. Office attendance also feels closely monitored, which can reduce flexibility and trust.
