Pros

Great work-life balance. Very friendly and cooperative colleagues, partly due to the way we hand out promotions. Internally rather transparent, and management seems to listen to what we want.

Cons

There are many overqualified and hardworking people here. Just hard work alone will not get you anywhere. You need to source for good projects, work hard, and smart in order to have decent career advancement.

Advice to Management

Hire more hungry people. Be more selective. Improve the quality of our food, please -- I don't mind paying for it!

Fix the Android app, please. It is losing the battle.
