Worse Place I've worked

Pros

They paid me well enough. There was also some internal promotion happening, which is a positive

Cons

A real lack of internal process. They were doing thing in a way that didn't make any sense, yet pursued going down the path because that is how it was done. Attrition was through the roof, that should have been warning bells right here.

Pros

- Great place to learn new tech as a graduate developer (Ruby, .net, .net core, Angular, php, Wordpress etc) - Nice and easy going developers to work with

Cons

- The company has two main teams - Managed services team (majority of people work in this team) and Software development team (5-10 people). So the business decisions made is always based on the outcome from MS part of the organisation - be it remote work policy or employee management - Micro management - because the main business is Managed services, billing clients depends on timesheets which never really was helpful for development team - Not a company where they put their employees first - Unnecessary attention into Blockchain technology when there is so much potential with other tech projects which I don't think the leadership has realised yet. The leadership is mostly unaware of what skillset the team has and what the team can do - No proper Software development best practices in place (wonder how they still retain ISO certification) - Understaffed always and work pressure is high - No recognition or rewards. All you can expect on top of a below average market salary is 3% annual bonus during tax time (didn't even receive this in 2019) - They have a very ambitious quarterly review program which doesn't run smoothly and was failed since it's inception. oh... and there was no review cycle at all in 2019 - Do not fall for the sugarcoating from leadership as you might get promoted to a senior role but with no pay rise - Treats employees very poorly once they have decided to move on. I personally know at least 5 past employees who received threats and abuse from the CEO. He might even spread bad reviews about the employee to their prospective employer. So never disclose where you're going
