Pros

Diverse and global workplace with great co-workers

Cons

-Management has not been supportive and at times counterproductive in its dealings with teams outside Cambridge. -Management has not been honest and has made statements or "promises" that were counter to their actual intentions. -A lot of fancy talk, very little support. -Intention of closing the Copenhagen office and absorbing the portfolio brand has been communicated without clear intentions and has resulted in a dragged out process that caused a lot of unnecessary stress for employees.

Pros

Team members are given space to grow, domain over their work, no boundaries on where they can work. Everyone in the company has access to all data, source code, and tools in order to do their job as they see fit. This freedom comes with the accountability of ownership over your work. As a developer, this is a very rewarding experience. Additionally, the company invests a large number of resources into individual development, training, and team events to foster a strong team culture and to help team members achieve their full potential.

Cons

Those who require a lot of direction will not be successful in this company. If you expect leadership to relieve your pain points, then you'll probably be let down. The expectation of the company is that you will rise to the challenge of overcoming your own obstacles. The company operates with minimal overhead giving just barely enough resources to achieve the highest priority goals, which can be rather challenging at times.
