Great Place to Elevate your experience in Cloud & Cybersecurity - werkgeversreview Cloud Cyber Security Engineer bij Programus

Working directly with clients provides excellent exposure and fast learning. Some of the senior leadership—especially the COO—bring exceptional clarity and problem-solving skills. He is tough but has a brilliant mind and consistently finds a way to navigate complex situations. I learned a lot from him and a few other senior team members who genuinely elevate the organisation. Same with CTO.

Not all team members are up to the expected standard, which often impacts delivery timelines. The QA function in particular requires stronger talent; the current setup makes it difficult to maintain quality and avoid issues late in the cycle. Delivery timelines can be tight, and there are periods of weekend or extra-hours work that could have been avoided with higher overall quality in development and QA. Productive times

1. Remote work - BUT you're expected to work around the clock. You step away for 10 minutes and the CEO himself will personally message you saying you're offline. 2. Foreign currency pay - BUT extremely below average and well if you're desperate well by all means, but you can kiss any expectations of increments for years to come. 3. Opportunity to work with clients globally - BUT all you will hear from the clients is how dissatisfied they are and be prepared to have an earful if youre a PM or a lead. Don't expect any support from your leadership because the CEO (who is involved with literally everything and needs to learn how to delegate) has a HUGE superiority complex and ask you to inform the client that's how it's done or you pay extra if you don't like it.

Sigh... Where do I begin. Job security - don't make the mistake of signing the contract blindly. You will be pushed to sign it in a hurry by your HR so that you don't contest the numerous loopholes in it where they could have zero liability even if you're in the permanent cadre. Ive seen people get terminated with absolute zero notice. Job role - expected to do everything, know everything, be everything. Employee turnover - employees join in flocks, employees leave in flocks. You start a project with one person and by the end of the month that person's gone in the wind. God knows what's up with that. CEO and COO - BIG con. They lead by instilling fear. Less than one month in and you've already had a sudden teams call from them where they assert dominance and nit-pick flaws in your "clear communication". Literally almost everyone I worked with had experienced the same. Senior Management - wouldn't hesitate for a second to throw you under the bus when push comes to shove to save themselves in fear of the CEO. They bad mouth the CEO behind his back and are loyal most grateful servants when he's on the call. The process - Whole thing is a huge mess. There's a new process every week.
