Pros

If you enjoy going to the office it’s a young and fun environment with free drinks on Fridays and a free lunch on the app once a month

Cons

Salaries are at the lowest end of the market even if their owner door dash claims otherwise. High turnover because employees are aware of this. Performance reviews are based on politics, role changes and pay rises are based on politics. Most line managers prioritise their own visibility and ambition over developing their teams - if they have a chance of getting promoted they’ll make damn sure they’d take as much credit as they can at the expense of their team, team to manager feedback is never acknowledged. If you thrive in office politics and organising endless meetings that someone else is already organising you’ll love it.

Pros

The company is presented as a young and dynamic environment, at least from an external communication point of view.

Cons

Unfortunately, the internal reality is very different. Career progression mainly favors people who are close to management or who know how to please the right individuals, while meritocracy clearly comes second. Losing valuable employees does not seem to concern upper management at all. Many department heads lack experience and competence, which leads to constant issues, misunderstandings, and organizational problems that directly impact daily work and team morale. The company promotes itself as “young and dynamic,” yet hires employees over 60 whose experience does not appear to be properly assessed or effectively leveraged, creating a strong inconsistency between image and reality. Salaries are not competitive compared to the market. Salary increases and bonuses are very low and demotivating. Benefits are either almost non-existent or purely symbolic.
