Unique environment in Italy
Software Engineering Lead • Current Employee

Pros: There is a friendly and sociable working environment, good pay, and a lot of possibilities to thrive and be impactful with your skills.
Cons: Requires good resilience to context changes, and you need to be careful to find the work-life balance that best works for you.

Most likely the best workplace in the world

Pros: It’s a workplace which perfectly matches the word “flexible” - you have the freedom of working from anywhere in the world without your salary being impacted. You can also conduct your asynchronous work at any time you want. You have the opportunity to contribute and bring value to areas even outside of coding. The variety of tasks which I was able to take on made everything all the more exciting, fulfilling, and genuinely fun.
Cons: Everything is fast-paced, so you may feel overwhelmed as a newcomer.
It all goes away though because people are very supportive and understanding.

It's a very good place to work, but not heaven on earth
Software Engineer • Former Employee
March 13, 2024
Pros: - The company has all sorts of benefits you can think of. - The pay is overall good compared to the European market and a complete outlier in Italy. - The colleagues are amazingly skilled, and mostly very nice people to work with, as people tend to help you if you ask. - The company is pretty much transparent towards its employees regarding major decisions, or at least, it feels like this.
Cons: - very poor work/life balance due to lots of work and very "ambitious" deadlines (to be able to deliver at the pace you are asked to, you will constantly have to put in extra hours, even if you are extremely efficient)
- even if the company looks like it has noble purposes, at the end of the day, what it seems to mostly care about is money, so all of the decisions it makes are oriented towards maximizing earnings, with all the pros and cons that result from this
- the company puts a lot of pressure on performance, and if you do not perform well, you are let go
- senior employees are sometimes so busy that you will lack the opportunity to learn from them
- you will have the feeling that some of the people you work with are solely trying to maximize their performances based on the metrics that are used to define performance
