Great time-off culture, good tech stack, and great workplace variety.
C1 also pays very competitively for software engineers compared to other financial companies. The company itself has lots of engineering opportunities due to the huge technology variety; you just have to cut through the red tape to get to them.
Still a bank at the end of the day. They are transforming into a technology "first" company, but their growth is dependent on a lot of outside contracting, which means some applications are built, deployed, and forgotten.
In-house tech has grown considerably to combat this, but the ramifications are still felt. Senior management is business-minded and has more interest in shiny technology than sound engineering fundamentals.
