Pros

Working remote with flexibility from anywhere in Europe

Cons

- They have a crazy legacy code that u will not be able to work with it without asking the older devs worked there for sometime. - nothing motivating about working as u don’t learn anything except fixing bugs, they are saying it laravel framework, but it is not , it is just a legacy code that will cause pain for you when u start working on it ( some files are more than 2000 lines ) , larval only less than 10 % of the project - managements have no clue about the software process and just don’t know how to manage a team, - owners don’t know how to manage a company, they trying to do work for others like PO position which they have no idea what is PO is , and that lead to they don’t know how to do grooming for tickets or analyse tasks and know what is needed for the next quarter, at the end all the devs were feeling lost cause they don’t help but u can’t say that cause they are the owners , at the end they started again to search for PO. - they laid 10% of the employees off at the end of December which make me wonder if they gonna fire more employees soon, so not stable to join - hire and fire , every week someone is leaving and they just don’t say .

Pros

Very friendly work environment. Everyone is 'all hands on deck' so we are all working together to meet a common goal. Flexible with remote work and with living in a different country.

Cons

Time zone, but not a bad thing. Need to be sure to complete tasks for the next day, so teams will have what they need the next morning.
