Pros

Beautiful office, free drinks, good colleagues.

Cons

Got hired and let go in under two weeks. After a brief training period and sharing the knowledge I knew would be useful to them, the boss informed me that it wasn’t going to work out. I was told I could stay through the end of my short-term trial contract, which I tried — but I was then assigned repetitive, unengaging tasks that felt intended to push me out. I didn’t receive my employment contract until several days after I had already started working. I had to ask for it multiple times. When it was finally given to me, it included the wrong start date and clearly stated it would not be extended beyond the trial period. After I resigned, I needed some documentation from them but was then informed that I had not been enrolled in the company’s health insurance, even though the contract explicitly stated I would be which means I could not get the documents. When I asked for clarification, a staff member told me it had simply “slipped their mind.” They said they could enroll me (after I already left) but it would take time and I could not wait for the documents that long. This experience was disorganized, unprofessional, and extremely stressful. It had a serious negative impact on my mental health, and I ultimately felt I had no choice but to leave for my own well-being. I would like to write more about the personality of the boss but as many have already done so before me, I can only say 'trust the reviews'.

Pros

I was working in the tech side of the business so my experience would seem to differ from the logistics side. However, this is my experience of my time. - Willing to invest early in my career and give me a chance as an intern - No overtime - Timelines are discussed, made and adjusted fairly in terms of planning and expectations - Other staff members are great - Flat hierarchy so things can be hashed out with management if needed

Cons

- Compensation might not be the most "competitive" - Loss of mid/senior devs led to confusion as some documentation and testing were lacking. Improved recently as a focus was put to remedy this.
