- 5.0Going great so farBackend Engineer • Current EmployeeDubai, United Arab EmiratesOctober 30, 2025Pros: Everything from interviews to working my first months here was super smooth. The interviewers were very friendly and helpful, and didn't really mind if I messed up some minor things as long as I was thinking on the right path and logic. On the inside, it's a big team of very talented, skilled, and organized people, so it's a treat to be able to spend time with them and feel like I have the opportunity to learn a lot.Cons: Honestly, I can't think of anything major at the moment to consider a con.
