Pros

High impact - small company working for some of the world’s largest tech companies and providing input to their strategic planning Great people - one of the friendliest and most helpful teams I’ve ever come across Very remote friendly - employees in multiple timezones and a lot of asynchronous workflows, but also make a big effort to use video chat and include everyone in celebrations and team building activities

Cons

Tendency to be permanently over-stretched. Always trying to do more than the team really has capacity for. It’s difficult to say no to interesting projects / products for high profile clients. If you like a challenge it’s very rewarding to deliver such a volume of work successfully, but it’s not easy to sustain long term. Frequent tweaking of the company strategy can be frustrating.

Thanks for sharing your experience! Indeed, we assume all the team is distributed, and rely on online tools rather than the odd "water cooler conversation" between people that happen to be in the office to ensure communication flows smoothly. I hear you about the stress of taking on ambitious projects for high profile clients in the past and stretching the team. Not sure when you worked at /Data. In 2019 our priorities are based on a 100% top-down goal setting, starting from 3-year goals (reviewed annually) to 1-year goals, 1 year strategic priorities and 3 month goals down to each individual team member. Goals are agreed with each person every 3 months and so it's up to each individual to be accountable for their goals. If you have additional comments on how we can improve please reach out to andreas@ on how we can improve. Andreas Constantinou - CEO
