Pros

Good location (metro line 5 nearby) Nice and friendly colleagues

Kontras

Wages lower than average, and overall unattractive package Huge turnover: people constantly come and go "Low-cost" company: you have to bring your own coffe, your own pens, etc. No clear direction: you start working on a project or a particular market, and then a few weeks later you're told it's not worth it anymore CEO vs. Managers: your manager can give you an objective in the morning, and in the afternoon, the CEO will come to you directly to say "scrap it, do the opposite". This happens on a regular basis. Nearly 50 people (inclunding interns), and there is no real HR department

Pros

Fair compensation, good product, great industry to sell into. There is a huge opportunity to make an impact both within the company as well as benefiting the world. Lots of autonomy to do your work and find your path to success. This comes with a high bar for results and extreme ownership.

Kontras

Working with the main team in Europe has its challenges (eg. time zone, market differences, culture, etc) but there is more autonomy. With autonomy, you really have to own your own success and you cannot blame others for your lack of results.
