      Good for beginners

      Pros

      - Good technologies - Good work / life balance - Good support for beginners: intensive onboarding, self-development plan - Working atmosphere is good - I would recommend company for beginners - the are a lot things to learn, good support by people leads, etc.

      Cons

      - All problems tend to be solved by hiring new people. You are just replaceable detail of huge system. To many people in general. See next points. - Salaries are low because of the first point. - There are a lot of unqualified people because of the first point. Therefore creativity and innovations exist rather on paper. "Great ideas" is about great people, not radical agility or some other process. - Very slow development process because of the first point: to many teams involved in implementation of each feature, to many meeting, to many alignments, etc. Innovation is about fast iterating, not creating detailed API-s upfront.

      Pros

      Inspiring and ambitious goals, lovely office space, great colleagues, tons of social events, well organised in general.

      Cons

      Very different cultures across different departments. I worked cross-departmental. Tech was excellent, and Radical Agility is great - the working environment is lovely and you feel respected Other departments are slightly juvenile and and the inspiring talks/initiatives from the leaders felt forced and quite often patronising, and just didn't resonate with me at all. Feedback culture could definitely be improved - the current set-up is quite confronting and caused our team a lot of problems. Having a HR team that's not recruiting would be very beneficial - it exists in tech - everyone has a "people lead", but the rest of the company don't have that luxury.
