Pros

The company offers excellent employee benefits, including the option to keep your laptop after three years of service, comprehensive maternity coverage (including gynaecology visits), and 20 weeks of paid parental leave after one year of employment.

Cons

Management lacks a clear strategic direction, leading to frequent churn and negative growth. Internal teams tend to form cliques, creating an exclusive environment, and confidential information is often poorly managed and spreads quickly across the company.

Pros

Supportive people, a strong culture, and meaningful flexibility are the biggest positives. I've had the chance to work with thoughtful colleagues who care about doing good work and helping each other succeed. There are solid opportunities to learn, build relationships across teams, and contribute in a way that feels impactful.

Cons

Workloads can be heavy during busy periods, and priorities can sometimes shift quickly (which is expected in growing companies)

Pros

Remote work and decent pay

Cons

Really depends on the team, however middle management needs to be addressed. Toxic culture that truly depends on who your manager is. Silent layoffs are made to seem "Performance-based", then job is re-posted at a reduced range. Proceed with caution and understand that HR is not your friend.
