Pros

• Friendly, genuine people • Inclusiveness is observed strictly • There are good engineers, some with a wealth of life/work experience • A good working atmosphere with a genuine attitude towards accepting and sharing feedback, and promoting positive change to processes within the company • Very open to international people

Cons

Due to the high growth nature of the company, many processes and practices need to scale faster than possible, which causes process contention and stress in decision-making.

Engineers can be quite opinionated on tech choices and design.

Advice to Management

Perhaps spend a bit more money on training programs for management and employees, so that they can grow into the experts required for roles.

Bring in more experts or staff to delegate work to.
