Pluspunten

You get the chance to work with Google which is cool. But NOT Netflix...if you've been keeping tabs on LinkedIn. Are Amazon, Shopify and Unicef even their clients?

Minpunten

Totally disappointing for a place that labels itself "talent-centric". Also, it is not a "micro agency". Seriously, the so-called "Core" team doesn't even touch the work we handle for our clients. They have no clue about the actual work we do. Maker Lab likes to say they're all about our career progression, but it’s the clients who review our performance and sometimes decide on our pay raises.

Pluspunten

- Welcoming (???) - Salary is decent, slightly competitive.

Minpunten

- Everything is very transactional. I honestly cannot imagine my career growing. - Limited job securit/Lack of long-term stabilityy. While I am classified as a full-time employee, I feel that my job security is still heavily dependent on client contracts. Since my role is tied to a specific client engagement, there is always the possibility that my position could be affected if the client decides not to renew or continue the partnership, regardless of my individual performance or contributions. This creates some uncertainty when it comes to long-term career stability and planning. - Limited flexibility and employee autonomy. In my experience, the company operates with very strict policies that leave little room for managerial discretion or trust-based decision-making. While I appreciate the emphasis on accountability, some policies can feel unnecessarily rigid. For example, employees are required to provide a medical certificate for a single day of sick leave, whereas many companies only require documentation for longer absences.

21 days leave, remote work

Most things have gone downhill. Removed yearly allowance, no career progression and increment with lack of transparency on how increment is determined
