Big Data Engineer • Current Employee
Pros: The salary is good, and the culture is very American-style and international. I'm in a global team with many people working from different countries all around the world, which is quite fun.
The work methodology is more or less Agile, although not fully implemented and with some bad influences from older methods.
Good internal surveys to anonymously review how employees feel and how leaders are doing, and it seems that real actions are taken to improve.
Very nice flexibility in terms of work/life balance, with options for full remote contracts but still with the possibility to book a desk in the office. There are no strict start and end working hours.
Nice yearly variable bonus salary based on performance, and they might give you company stocks to keep you if you have very good performance.
Gym, game room, canteen, and coffee bar in the office, which is pretty well-made and comfortable.
Pretty good HR services and quality.
Good discounts on Dell products for employees.
Cons: A bit too keen on scheduling meetings instead of using emails and chat for random issues.
Agile is not fully implemented. For example, many times you don't have dedicated job positions for Product Owner, Scrum Master, etc., and the approach is more hybrid.
The team culture can vary a lot from team to team, so you might end up in great teams or other ones where you want to run away quickly.
Standard amount of day off based on the country's laws. No thirteenth or fourteenth salaries.
The American culture means a strong ambition culture from everyone, which might not always be good.
