Pros
  • Competitive salary
  • Good stock bonus
  • Flexible working
  • Nice office
  • Social activities
  • Good work-life balance
  • Varied workforce, DEI centric
  • People treat you with respect
Cons
  • Maybe a bit of a turn to try to improve profitability now that we're a public company and that puts some pressure (some say, Americanization of the company).
  • Sometimes you have impossible deadlines, but you do what you can, nobody expects you to work after hours for a planning error.
Advice to Management

They're ok in general. They used to have good rapport with the people, then there was a bit of uncertainty and trust issues at the time when going public (things management did that couldn't be shared alienated a bit the employees that were in the company for a long long time); but they've worked hard in regaining that trust.

Maybe we grew too much and now they're pushing 10x mindset: better to grow slow and hire only the best (but I reckon it's hard when we have so many market opportunities).
