Pros

Amazing company to work for with an incredible culture where you can develop and boost your skills as an engineer. Modern tech stack with very challenging problems to solve. As a mid-level engineer, you get the opportunity to lead architecture designs and act as a project lead where you can truly push yourself. Being a startup, you also get to wear many hats and work across the stack, which is very fun and challenging. A very good overall package too, and the unlimited holiday perk is the cherry on top.

Cons

This is down to personal preference, but as the company is fully remote, if you work outside of Edinburgh, you might feel like you miss the in-person socialization part. But, again, it's a matter of personal preference

Pros

Great company to work for over the last three years. A top tier product that I'm really proud of having contributed to. Real autonomy for the engineering teams, and culture of anyone being able to contribute ideas and suggestions, regardless of grade. Great for me as a working parent, really supportive in helping me try various part-time options to try and strike the right work-life balance.

Cons

A small dev team do a lot! The fast pace is great and I've never been bored, but we do ask a lot of our developers in balancing support/maintenance with new features.
