Pluspunten

None at all. Toxic place.

Minpunten

- poor/inexperienced mgmt - poor decision making - smoke and mirrors on everything - toxic environment, just politics and faking things - difficult to push actual product ideas - chinese decisions ruining product - product roadmap does not include actual product changes rather marketable or "fomo" features and call it Innovation - no proper qa when releasing product - release cycles are too short - user numbers artificially kept up by buying users, rather than using that money to fix the product issues and develop it further - difficult sales teams to work with (their targets are always too high and takes priority over actual product change/development) - mgmt uses intiminidation if somones voices different opinion or tries to leave company - long working hours - poor wages - poor benefits (horrible lunch) - new employee contacts are made so that they can end it in 1 month (vs 3 months standard given to previously employed people)

We have an international team that enjoys working with technology. Our workspace is diverse and energetic which helps us to keep our peace in our fast moving day to day. The latest employee survey showed that our employees in Norway, Sweden, Poland, France and Nigeria are very engaged with our brand and described it as a collaborative environment.

Pluspunten

Truly international in scope and reach, with a mostly HR-centric culture that values employees and delivers management training and feedback well. Nice offices, especially in Norway, and a collaborative and open culture with very little finger-pointing. Lots to do, and many resources with which to do it.

Minpunten

Sometimes a little too European and slow-moving, particularly with regard to setting a direction and sticking to it and/or not shedding unpromising programs or projects quickly enough.
