Pros

- The people! Very strong engineering culture and a friendly team, this is the strongest engineering team I have worked with in my career and I have worked with some very good teams before - Workplace flexibility, the company is happy with hybrid remote, fully remote and provides allowances to pay for equipment if you're based from home - Scala projects. I am a scala developer and strong scala projects are not that common in Australia - Events - there are a lot of team events and weekly technical talks, the company puts a lots of thought into these

Kontras

- As a consultancy sometimes there will be periods where projects are not ideal, however if you ask to be moved the company is very responsive and change will generally happen quite quickly - The company has a lot of senior people, if you aren't as strong as some of the other team members it is up to each individual to 'sink or swim' the company does provide support to develop people, but they don't carry people who don't pull their own weight - I see this as a slight negative, although this is also a big positive as the company is ensuring consistent quality

Pros

You will meet good engineers and good people here as colleagues. The work has its ups and downs, and although it is generally dull, it is to least demanding enough to pass the time. The pay is good (but not worth it).

Kontras

I could never be bothered to write a review after leaving, but seeing a recent review sparked me to add my voice to the discontented. Maybe it helps someone like me to not step in the trap. First and foremost, the CEO is a total liability to the company. He is condescending, controlling and a narcist. He deploys the usual charming on one day, horrible on the next tactics to try and control employees. Carrots are dangled and whips are cracked. I have never worked at a company where so many people get fired / rage quit / or bite their lip until the get a chance to leave. I met so many good engineers that had their spirit and self-confidence completely broken before moving on. If he could just learn to let go and let the excellent people that work for him do their thing, it might be a better workplace. The senior leadership serve as his echo chamber, because no one ever stood up to him while I was there, and no one ever addressed the issues that the employees brought forward. It could be that they've realised that he is incapable of change, but so doing have become stagnant bobbleheads, waiting for a big payout when SM gets sold? I don't know really.
