Pros

Checkout.com is going through incredible fast paced growth, making the environment exciting and forever changing - you certainly won't be bored! Passionate and likeminded colleagues who are supportive, collaborative and creative. An amazing culture, looked after by a dedicated People Culture team and a People Experience team who organise great company events and maintain the offices. Opportunity for career progression and training supported by the People Development team. Great collaboration between People Acquisition, Technology and Product, with individuals that appreciate and initiate change

Cons

Out growing the offices! Not really a con especially with the exciting new office plans

Pros

- Interesting domain (payments) - Nice perks such as occasional free lunches, drinks, company trip, parties - “People” team seems better than usual HR at most companies. - Lots of ambitious projects with modern technology (e.g. .NET Core 3.0, DynamoDB). - Twice-yearly reviews

Cons

- Non-technical people in product roles is a frequent source of frustration - Some of the longer-serving developers aren’t great

Pros

The engineering leadership is open to using the latest technologies, latest versions of tools, etc. Teams are given good amounts of freedom to experiment, do R&D, write pocs etc. We've had a bunch of training sessions with Amazon AWS people on recent AWS tech and services. Management seem to actually be good people, friendly, approachable, not micro-managers and so on. Teams are trusted to do the right thing. People team (HR) really try to put on good events and to their credit they are actually quite good. Often good food is provided, drinks, etc. Recently more push towards physical and mental health initiatives (which I think is amazing). Very sociable company in general.

Cons

The office is getting packed with all the new hiring (basically impossible to book meeting rooms), although we are moving to a new (and much bigger) office soon so that should be way better. Some growing pains in terms of hiring so fast and trying to expand in every way which makes coordinating on cross team products hard. Communication needs to be better on cross team initiatives. Working with the Mauritius office can be difficult. Communication-wise.
