The culture is vibrant and energizing, with employees coming together six or more times a year for team gatherings and celebrations. The company also offers a competitive salary for LATAM developers.
Cons
There are no PTOs, and when you're unassigned from a project, sometimes it's difficult to get placed again, even though new hires keep coming in.

Thank you for your thoughtful review and for highlighting the aspects of X-Team that have made a positive impact on your experience.
Our contractor model is key to building our global community, as it enables us to partner with exceptional individuals worldwide. This approach features a higher pay rate, designed to empower individuals to manage their own time off and benefits. Maintaining this distinction ensures we can partner with talent fairly and compliantly across the globe. We also support everyone with Unleash , our annual $2,500 stipend for growth and well-being.
Thank you for being part of our journey.
Engaging and vibrant community.
Sense of belonging.
Amazing in-person events (X Summit, X Outpost).
Awesome perk package (Unleash).
Freedom to work anywhere.
Easy, yet powerful vetting process.
Inclusive and neuro-diverse company.
Cons
X Summit could be twice a year and be 7 days long \o/.
Really, this is the only con I can think of. :D

Thanks for your feedback, it’s great to hear how much you’ve enjoyed the community, the events, and the freedom to work from anywhere.
And we hear you on making X Summit even bigger, we love that kind of enthusiasm!
Working with people from different backgrounds and cultures, travel opportunities (Outposts, Summit), excellent remote culture with innovative challenges, events and streaming. The Experiences Team deserve the very best. They know how to keep the community engaged to the all the factors in the cons.
Cons
Management needs leadership training. Do not believe anything posted on social media. They are like all other corporations with false promises, withholding commissions, have you sign contract templates, admittedly so, with extreme limitations, and provide no growth opportunities. Frankly they are aiming too high knowing well there is no solid foundation to deliver. Not to mention it is known across the company that there are very inappropriate people on the Sales Team and HR has consistently overlooked concerns as they are also under protection from their own mistakes. It is unfortunate.
