Pros

- They really master the Kanban methodology so, pressure and stress is rare - They have some good product owners that really try to make the product better - Beautiful instalations - They are transparent in all the processes

Cons

- Tech stack is outdated and try to update it is not a priority, this causes a lot of developers to feel stagnant and unmotivated. - Developer culture is hostile for newcomers. - Code reviews are very confusing, standards live in a small group of developers heads and not in the documentation. - Little attention to personal growth - Resistance to change

eDreams ODIGEO Response

Thank you for your feedback! We are glad you enjoyed working with us, and we are sorry to see some of the aspects of your employee experience were not up to your expectations. In terms of the tech stack, we use Java 8 as main coding language, while the other stacks are more related to the needs of the products. We are dockerizing, moving to microservices, using kafka, cloud, elasticsearch, unit testing, functional testing, machine learning. The more "microserviced" we become, the more freedom there is in choosing the tech stack. Our code reviews are not standardized, and each team follows the approach that fits with their necessities and way of working. Thank you again for your feedback, it helps us make eDreams ODIGEO a better place.

Pros

- Excellent working environment, leadership shows real care about employees; this also propagates to great team work and cooperation, with knowledgeable and hard-working colleagues always willing to help. - Great work-life balance; very nice employee benefits; good work is valued. - Complex and interesting project with architecture well done, good modern technologies are used; interesting things to work on, to learn and to advance professionally.

Cons

- Necessary procedures for some things and big number of teams may seem difficult in the beginning if cross-team work is needed, but with good understanding this can be handled with ease and efficiency.
