RecommendsPositive OutlookNo opinion of CEOI have been working at Raisin full-time (More than a year)
Pros
- Great Engineering VP ( best I've ever had )
- Great HR ( here called Talent and Culture ), really responsive and keen to help
- Raisin invests a LOT of money in Team Building with internal and external events.
- Free Snacks and Beer ( other drinks as well )
- An awesome budget for Conferences /Training
- Good salary compensation
- Awesome setup ( anything you want ) ( usually last model of MacBook Pro )
- The company is investing time/money to get rid of tech debtCons
- Lack of trust on developers to make decisions... Everything ends on the CTO desk.
- Lack of good POs and Scrum masters
- Really bad legacy code around
- The development infra ( servers to test your stuff ) is not good and will make you crazy sometimes.
- Poor deployment strategy... Not continuous and tedious.
- Some really bad/unprepared leadersAdvice to Management
Please, trust your engineers and give them the possibility to take decisions.

Pros
Since I entered the job market, I've never worked in an environment so lovely. Everyone is super friendly and willing to help/support if you ever need it. Although Raisin is a startup, it still has the work hard play hard mentality; so there's freedome to have a game of table football or ping pong, as long as you stay on top of your tasks.
There is also adequate room to grow and take initiative. I started off as an intern and grew into a part time role where I could feel the impact of the work I did.Cons
Can't think of any!
Perhaps more training opportunities. However, I do realise that as an intern/part-time employee it would be difficult to justify have this arranged.Raisin 2019-02-05 14:57 PST![Raisin Logo]()

Pros
The Learning.
In less then 4 months of working here at Raisin I have already learned so many different things - from different programming languages / frameworks / skills to finance and banking.
Open workplace.
Raisin provides a really comfortable open workplace, where you can adjust everything by your needs. And if you need anything, you will have it in short terms, you just need to ask.
Feedback sessions.
At Raisin you can always freely express yourself.Cons
Nothing to add here so far.
