    Business Outlook

    Pros

    1. Relaxed Environment: Kingfisher offers a stress-free and comfortable workplace, allowing for flexibility and a balanced work-life approach. 2. Cutting Edge Tools and Technologies: The company is at the forefront of industry trends, ensuring employees have access to the latest tools and technologies to enhance their work. 3. Greenfield Projects: There’s an exciting opportunity to work on brand-new projects from the ground up, offering a chance for innovation and creativity.

    Cons

    Lack of Office Emphasis: Within my specific team, there’s a minimal emphasis on in-office collaboration. For junior engineers like myself, this can pose challenges in terms of mentorship, hands-on learning, and building connections with more experienced colleagues. 2. Overly Large Scrum Teams: My current scrum team is unusually large with over 20 members, which can sometimes impede effective communication and agile processes. However, it’s worth noting that the company plans to address and change this in Q1, 2024.
