Pros
  1. The office is cozy and provides a comfortable working environment.
  2. Employees enjoy a variety of free amenities, including unlimited coffee, tea, hot chocolate, and occasional treats like ice cream and sweets. Lunch is also partially covered.
  3. The company offers flexible remote work options, including the possibility to work from locations outside of Austria.
  4. Apart from data science, the company is developing well in Austria, showing growth in other areas.
Cons
  1. The salary is below market standards, and management shows little interest in retaining employees, leading to minimal salary increases.
  2. Career advancement is difficult, with few opportunities for promotion.
  3. Data science projects are limited and often lack engaging or innovative topics.
  4. There are too many mandatory training sessions that must be completed during personal time, leading to a workweek that often exceeds 40 hours, which is considered the norm.
Advice to Management

• Improve salaries and career growth opportunities. • Expand data science projects with innovative topics. • Reduce mandatory training outside work hours. • Focus on employee retention and well-being.
