Pros

Great company with a great culture, everyone I met was extremely capable, they gave us complete freedom to do whatever we want.

Cons

None really, it was cool, maybe a bit more direction would be great. Okay now I'm just trying to get over the 2 0 word limit.

Pros

In-house restaurant. you receive a mug of free coffee in the morning.

Cons

The pay is miserable and the job comes with absolutely no benefits. The management doesn't know what they are doing. The company is run by idiots that drive Ferraris and employ their friends as management. With 15 years of IT experience, I was only paid 8K which I only accepted because I could work from home. After a year working for them, I was then however forced to work from the office, even though the management knew that my physical disability prohibited this. I, therefore, was forced to look for a new job, but while I was doing so I was threatened and insulted on a daily basis, as they were trying to force me out of the company. The company also forces you to take on five tasks that do not have anything to do with your job description, and that you are also not paid extra for.
