Pluspunten

- Unlimited AI tokens, basically a vibe-coding haven where spamming Opus 4.7 is just a normal Thursday. Spending 5 digits here on tokens is the norm. - Free lunch, lots of snacks, coffee etc. - Supportive of learning new technologies (sponsor certifications, etc.) - Easy to climb up the ladder if you’re extroverted. - Fast paced environment where you learn a lot

Minpunten

- Incredibly toxic. Some days you dread going to work because management is so fickle with decisions and a lot of work goes to waste. - Does not provide a 13 months salary. - The new appraisal system is quite unfair. - Some individuals get higher scores than others and it’s highly dependent on how much your manager likes you. - HR is against you instead of supporting you. - Pretty cult-ish. The upper management treat employees more like slaves rather than people. - Most of the vibe-coding engineers are ruining the infra because theres too much reliance on shipping quantity than shipping quality. Really wouldn’t recommend this place for top notch AI engineers. Even if this place pays you well, they’re paying you in exchange for your sanity.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience and for highlighting both the positives and areas of concern. It's great to hear that the access to AI tools, the learning opportunities, and the fast-paced environment resonated with you during your time here. Your feedback on management consistency, workplace culture, and the appraisal system has been noted. We take concerns about fairness in performance evaluations seriously. Our appraisal processes are designed to be structured and transparent, and we continuously review them to ensure they reflect merit and contribution rather than personal preference. Where gaps exist, we want to know about them so we can address them. Regarding compensation, we regularly assess our total rewards packages to ensure they remain competitive. We recognize that different structures work for different individuals, and this feedback is useful as we continue to evaluate what best supports our teams. On engineering standards, quality and sustainable development practices are priorities we hold alongside speed of delivery. Feedback on how those two are being balanced in practice is genuinely useful to the teams responsible for our technical direction. We wish you nothing but the best in your journey ahead.
