Pros
+ Many seniors actively mentor you (spend time teaching you ins-and-outs) + Nobody withholds knowledge, everyone shares + Even VP of Technology will regularly admit to not knowing stuff, and will be eager to learn + As an employee of 2 years I find it has kicked started my career to a point I can work anywhere, yet I choose to stay for the higher than average pay, and the friendliness + Very flat hierarchy + Very flexible working hours
Kontras
- You will be surrounded by very passionate people so if you want a strict 9-5, do-and-forget you will feel out of place - Some months are intense, others are relaxed (fluctuating volume of work) - High expectations - You might need to stay later for meeting with US folk (6-7pm), if you are in the UK/Ireland branch (But you can start working later, or take long breaks in the middle of the day, no-one expects you to do overtime!)
