Pros

The office is in Amsterdam.

It was a good company once.

Cons

Favoritism.

Promotion process is broken.

Non-tech company.

Cost cutting.

Outdated tech stack.

Weird concept of team lead.

Non-technical leadership.

Manual deployment.

Open culture is a myth (get ready for retaliation).

Expect things like super-strict work timings, 8 hours excluding lunch hours.

Mostly micromanagement from middle management is driving this place to the ground.

Advice to Management

God bless you.
