Pros

Flexibility and good culture between the peers.

Cons

Low compensation, limited prospects for advancement, particularly due to managerial favoritism, are prevalent issues. Slido perceives itself as superior to other companies, yet it fails to offer substantial support or perks. Advancement opportunities seem contingent upon personal relationships with senior management, a common occurrence elsewhere, despite Slido's belief in its exceptionalism. Moreover, the once-prominent "we care" culture has waned, with emphasis now placed on Cisco's bottom line.

Pros

Working at Slido has been a gratifying and pleasant work experience. I look back at my 3-year experience as some of the best years of my life, primarily due to my colleagues who were dear to me and the general atmosphere that the company enabled. All of this was organic and came naturally. There were ups and downs but if you are diligent enough, you will look back and only see the good things. That's how I'd summarize my time at Slido. Very grateful.

Cons

When the pandemic hit, the internal culture and atmosphere took a toll but that is nothing unordinary as I can imagine all of the other companies going through the same. The only recurring con seemed/seems to be the lacking growth option in terms of company hierarchy structure and the own team/department. Maybe this is due to the niche nature of the product or due to the company structure. However, I never felt as if I wasn't rewarded fairly or enabled to grow in any direction imaginable. I'm speaking from a 3 year experience only though.
