Pros

- Employees: people are professional and friendly; diversity (people come from very different backgrounds) makes it a fun place to cooperate and grow in. - Projects: varied, challenging and interesting; there are startup ones, as well as mature ones. - On-boarding process: the company is newcomer-friendly, on-boarding is well thought through and gentle. - Educational budget: 75% cost of conferences, courses, language lessons (etc.) is covered by the company (up to a certain limit per year); also, you get extra paid days off for conference attendance. - Weekly talks: almost every week there is a talk about software development, DevOps, management or another topic.

Cons

- Unpredictable and emotional CEO: you never know when he will be angry at something or someone; when he is angry he is unfriendly, antagonistic and he doesn't listen. - Atmosphere: due to CEOs actions moods are pretty bad and people are quitting - lately in a span of about three weeks four people (of twenty-something in total) quit because of something he said or done. - Conflict solving: the company has no ability to solve serious conflicts between management and employees.

Hi there, Thanks for your feedback, I appreciate it. As a company that's been growing quite dynamically in the last few years we're constantly facing new challenges and thus mistakes sometimes do happen as we go, unfortunately. The reinforcement of company culture and communication around change are particularly difficult in a growing team and I'm aware that I may have handled and overseen it better at times. I'm sorry for letting you down and making you feel this way. PS. It's been a while since you've posted this message - just to let you know I've taken it very seriously and was working hard to learn from it and improve. As a result, I feel that - as a team - we're now stronger and better aligned than ever and feedback was one of the things that made it possible, thanks. Lukasz

Pros

Very fast and solid interview process focused on pragmatic tasks and questions, both from Sunscrapers as a contractor and from the company I am currently working for. Nice and easy onboarding process - everything is planned and scheduled well, with all the necessary documents, to-do lists, and everything you need to start working. Working remotely without limits. Good people helping with development.

Cons

If you work with US companies in Poland there is a difference in timezone so you have to attend late meetings (up to 18 polish time) but it is stated from the beginning from Sunscrapers side
