Pros

- Young, international team of likeminded people that will easily become your friends outside of work. - Nice lunch every day, fun activities/parties. - Quite fast paced and always room to experiment. You get the freedom to do so and have actual impact. - If you're a junior and looking for a fast paced company to work at for 2 years max, and you're very stress resistant, I'd recommend working here.

Cons

- Management has more eye for revenue and making it comfortable for themselves than making sure the employees are paid at market value. The salaries don't reflect the hard work and expertise of most employees. - Only junior people get hired that lack experience, simply because they are cheaper and easier to 'mold'. - There is apparent micro management and favouritism among management (especially in favour of the 'veterans'). - A real top down approach even though they try to make it seem that the company is a 'flat' organisation. - Sensitive/HR related issues are not handled properly and often pushed under the rug. - Internal communication and transparency needs improvement. - Growth opportunities for employees are not very well established.

Pros

Ask Phill is a company that embodies an entrepreneurial and passionate spirit. Since I started working here, I have often taken the initiative to change things beyond my direct responsibilities. This experience has shown me that anything is possible if you have good reasons and are willing to put in the effort. Additionally, we work for top mid-market and enterprise brands in e-commerce, which are both inspiring and motivating. Compared to our competitors, our portfolio stands out significantly, making it easy for people to get out of bed each day. We are working together with a young and diverse team, which allows to learn about various cultures and engage in interesting conversations.

Cons

There have been significant managerial changes over the past few years, leaving some people unsatisfied. We transitioned to a hierarchical structure with heads, leads and directors, back to a completely flat organization led by the founders. Additionally, we have faced challenges in distributing and sharing knowledge among individuals, verticals and teams. This has resulted in high-pressure situations where people were not fully equipped to meet project delivery expectations.
