Pros

Gift Market provided a good working environment with supportive people and opportunities to improve my skills as a web developer. I was able to work on real business features, system improvements, integrations, and production-related tasks that helped me grow professionally.

Cons

Some processes and documentation could be improved to make development, handover, and troubleshooting easier. There were also times when certain tasks required more clarification, but overall the experience was still positive and valuable.
