Pros
- You get to move fast - very fast. The company runs on pure energy! - In-office barista - Company will encourage you to grow strongly in your use of AI
Kontras
- In the efforts to move fast, a lot of horrible trade-offs get made, whether it be to architectural design or fixing tech debt and developers feel like it is an endless slog of producing code that should be better but isn't - The headoffice is in London and that means trust is very hard to build up in Cape Town (and you feel it) - The relentless drive to push hard all the time is a culture that is not suited to many in tech - General lack of empowerment at the executive level in the people below them to operate without constant checkups, progress updates and some agency/independence in making decisions that they can stand with.
