It pays well, but the demand is high.
Staff Software Engineer • Current Employee
São Paulo, São Paulo, Brazil
April 29, 2025
Pros: The salary is good, and the internal tools we use are excellent.
Cons: The demand is great. It's not atypical that some days of the week we don't even have time for lunch. Recently, they have been asking people who had remote contracts to return to the office. They are also changing the period to be eligible for sabbatical from 5 years to 8 years. Both changes are illegal in Brazil, but they are happening anyway (Uber standard).
