Pros

There are a lot of interesting projects. It might be a good place to start for a year or two if you don't mind a rather low salary and a poor work-to-life balance.

Cons

The company relied heavily on unpaid interns to function. There were no career paths, salary increments or appraisals. It's a family run business by people who mean well but simply lack experience in staff management. Using a "start-up" label as an excuse can get stale quite quickly. High staff turnover. The atmosphere was seemingly nice but the frustration often lead to gossip, which was a little toxic to a newcomer. In the crunch times the tension was almost palpable. Someone with a PhD in Psych should certainly spot those traits and address them, unless they do not care...

Pros

Fast-paced environment with interesting projects and clients. The CEO is extremely intelligent and known in the industry so you can learn a lot from working with him.

Cons

Low salary, no benefits, no possibility for advancement, employees are micromanaged and treated like children with very strict rules (short and fixed breaks, no social media usage, etc etc). Management requires you to work as much as possible but they are not similarly flexible with employees.

Pros

The people are great. There are a lot of talented and hardworking colleagues who genuinely care about doing a good job and helping each other. Strong and interesting product.

Cons

There is a lack of transparency from leadership, which can make it difficult to understand decisions and company direction. A small group of high performers often ends up carrying a large share of the workload, while performance expectations don’t seem to be applied consistently across the organization. Burnout is a real issue, and many employees seem to be struggling, but it often feels like the problem is not fully acknowledged or addressed. Low performers appear to remain in place for long periods without much accountability, which means others are left to pick up the slack.
