- 2.0Good Money, Bad PeopleSoftware Developer • Current EmployeeAmsterdam, NetherlandsSeptember 14, 2021Pros: Money is really good compared to the market.Cons: People are really bad compared to the market.
- 5.0Great Growth, Long HoursSoftware Developer • Current EmployeeAmsterdam, NetherlandsMarch 12, 2016Pros: Best company I ever worked at! Always had a lot of opportunity to improve my technical skills. Lots of great people to work with and learn from. Management, specifically the CIO, cares about the staff.Cons: Work was a bit addicting sometimes, so I worked long hours. But nobody forced or even encouraged me to do that. The company is growing fast. That's not everyone's cup of tea. There's less structure at a fast-growing and already large company than at more settled companies. That can be good (opportunity) or bad (can feel chaotic).
