Boa experiência numa empresa sólida e remota - Product Designer Imaginary Cloud Employee Review

- Remote work and flexible hours; - Company culture, with very competent people who are also nice humans; - Transparency about strategy, revenue, goals, career plan and compensation. - Monthly support from the People department, with 30-minute calls to monitor motivation and engagement with the company, and also to discuss any issues that employees might be facing. - Annual salary adjustment according to inflation, plus opportunity to apply for a promotion every six months. - Good managers / decision-makers.

- Promotion/appraisal system is overly complex and time-consuming, and relies too much on the ability of the employee to justify their "good work" on the appraisal forms. - Vacation and Christmas bonuses are paid in twelfths regardless of the worker's preference.

During my time at the company, I had the opportunity to work in a positive and collaborative environment. The atmosphere fostered teamwork, and I was fortunate to work alongside excellent colleagues who were always supportive and knowledgeable. One of the key strengths of the company is its engagement with a wide range of technologies, offering exposure to various tools and platforms, which is a great asset for professional development.

Training planning was often lacking, both in terms of structure and available resources, which can make it challenging for employees to grow or onboard effectively. Additionally, compensation was not always aligned with market standards. There were also instances where relatively minor mistakes resulted in disproportionate consequences, such as recovery plans or even terminations. This, along with perceived inconsistencies in how employees were treated, sometimes impacted overall morale.
