Pros

* Helmes has strong focus on employee development. Different levels of specialists have dedicated development plan which is a good way to find out what next! * The other benefit is that teams in Helmes are free of buerocracy when it comes to development- team can find its own optimum way to deliver value! * No open office, most rooms are for one team (approx 7 ppl)

Cons

Lounge/relax area missing (but it seems to be coming veryvery soon)

Pros

Great team culture with a strong sense of ownership. Everyone in the team has a real voice and meaningful impact on decisions and results. Supportive colleagues, professional environment, and interesting projects. I cannot speak for the whole company, but my personal experience with my team has been very positive.

Cons

The hiring process was quite long and sometimes confusing. I was considered for multiple teams and projects, and some projects did not eventually start. At one point, I was unsure whether the process would lead anywhere because there were many transitions between different opportunities.

Pros

Usually projects are long term and stable. As Helmes targets public sector / governmental projects. Helmes has a roadmap for self-growth and it is possible to grow professionally. Also, in cases where the client of some project has to cut its development budget then Helmes tries to allocate developers to other existing projects.

Cons

Teams are like micro-companies within one building. Teams do not interact with each other as Helmes as a company encourages more team events than company level activities. There are no company summer days.
