Cons: - Getting very corporate lately and feels sluggish. Plenty of red tape. - Questionable decisions regarding people management recently. No transparency and honest communication in terms of C-level decisions. - No commitment to agile development anymore. Micro-waterfalls is now the model. - Micromanaging. Management will randomly pick things to solutionize on.

Pros: Amazing culture and people. Very generous company in terms of stuff they buy in the kitchen, bonuses, company trips, and more. Fast-paced company which uses the latest tech and stays open to new technologies. You will learn lots here and feel like a part of a family.

Cons: 8-hour working day. No dedicated time for learning.

Pros: Very strong team – yet no arrogant attitude and always willing to support their colleagues. Inclusive and very open culture – a major effort is also put into the well-being of the employees. A lot of growing potential – for both company and individuals, who have very transparent career paths.

Cons: This probably doesn’t lay completely on Checkout’s side, as the company does put a lot of emphasis on inclusion and diversity. But I personally would really like to see more women in engineering.
