Pros
People are approachable. New tech stack.
Cons
CEO announced in the last all hands that the runaway had been extended to mid summer thanks to some cost saving measures. 10 days later XYB announced a new round of layoffs. Around 30% of the total workforce between Estonia and London. No severance package (never heard of this in a tech company before, shocking). Also because the company needs to do a consultation to see who is finally made redundant, a bigger percentage of the staff has been waiting for a week, not knowing if they will loose their jobs or not. Apart from the above, XYB is not good for software engineers imo; there is no career progression or a process for it, no real knowledge sharing within teams to upskill other staff and working here feels chaotic most of the time. I can't recommend this company to anyone, I wish them good luck but it's hard to imagine them succeeding if they can't get a single client to sign a deal...
