Pros

- Use of agile methodologies (Scrum and KanBan). - Glass team rooms: each team has his own team room, made out of glass walls on which you can doodle. - Flat organisation (Almost no overhead). - Near public transport (Rotterdam Central station). - Awesome team members and (international colleagues). - Quality above quantity: Proper solutions for exciting and challenging problems without cutting of corners. - If you think something should be improved (on a process or technical level), you can take time do so and improve the company! - Work on different projects (CRM system, Website, logistical software etc.)

Cons

I don't have any at the moment.
