Pros

The technical stack is excellent, the work undertaken exciting and innovative. The original tech team was world class, a couple still are.

Cons

Micromanagement to the extreme. Lack of trust of core members of the company at every level of seniority. Meetings about meetings about meetings. Aggressive, shouty management techniques (from the highest level) that are 30 years out of date.

Pros

Treats you with great respect, won't call you after hours unless it's an emergency

Cons

They hire people that actually want to create value, if you just want to hide there it's not the place for you

Pros

Every day, even on the rough ones, I am reminded that being a member of the Planbox team was and continues to be the best choice. Planbox is the type of organization where your ideas and contributions matter, our leader-leader approach here to communication and responsibilities is what sets us apart. If you aspire to grow to your potential then Planbox is an organization where your team members and management will coach you to attain this goal.

Cons

Leader-leader doesn't work for everyone, for instance those that can't own responsibilities or stand by their decisions will not be happy here.
