Has become way worse

Pros

Stable, good environment with teammates. Yearly bonus.

Cons

Has become absurdly bureaucratic. They're asking for 2x the delivery but you can't even deploy during the day. All deploys need approval from your leader two levels up (so your boss's boss). If you get a critical project, hope you like unpaid 4AM deploys everyday and week-long on-calls, also unpaid. No growth path either. You could grow years ago in this company but not anymore. I cannot wait to leave. The new management are running this to the ground. If you feel the app has become worse it is because the development has gone to the trash too because of the bureaucracy.

Pros

Career-Defining Challenges: Engage in high-complexity technical projects that push your boundaries and allow you to make a tangible impact on the industry. Access to Top-Tier Expertise: Work alongside industry veterans and technical leaders who are committed to knowledge sharing, fostering an environment of continuous learning and mentorship. Value-Driven Culture: Join a transparent and respectful workplace where our core values aren’t just slogans—they are the foundation of every decision we make.

Cons

A Demanding Learning Curve: "Working alongside top-tier experts on cutting-edge projects means the initial learning pace is intense. It’s not for those looking to stay in their comfort zone, but for those with an insatiable hunger for professional growth."
