Pros: We had great views from the office and drinks on Friday.

Cons: Up to 20 people left recently due to pay. Tech stack is ancient, using C++ 11. More back office teams are not valued by management. A non-paid non-compete is activated when you leave. And as everyone said, grads are on more than seasoned employees.

Pros: There are great benefits such as a tasty cooked lunch every day, as many snacks as you want, a well equipped gym as part of the office and regular personal touches to make you feel valued. Working with very smart and driven people makes it easier to improve your skills. There is great pay but also reasonable hours that allow you to have a life outside work.

Cons: The work day is quite intense which makes it hard to catch up on continuous learning. It's shown by the tech stack being a little dated. Everyone there is open to modernizing things where there is benefit but you most probably can't start with untested toy libraries which would help make you marketable outside the company. It's not exactly a bad thing though because you are writing production code that is heavily optimized and used by users instead of switching frameworks every 6 months.

Pros: Work life balance is good.

Cons: Pay is not competitive with other firms Tech is ancient
