Pros: The company culture is a definite highlight. There's a strong sense of teamwork and mutual support among colleagues, particularly in the engineering department. People are generally helpful and willing to share knowledge. The collaborative environment makes tackling complex projects enjoyable and fosters a positive atmosphere for a software engineer. It feels like a place where people care about the product and each other.
Cons: Post-acquisition by Xero, some processes and decision-making timelines have felt a bit slower as things integrate. Occasionally, there's a bit of a disconnect between different teams or levels regarding project priorities, which can lead to minor inefficiencies. Clarifying communication channels further would really help streamline things, especially during peak development cycles for our accounting software.
Advice to Management: Continue fostering the collaborative culture that Dextall is known for. Investing in clearer cross-team communication protocols and potentially streamlining some approval processes post-Xero integration will further enhance efficiency and employee satisfaction for roles in software development and product management.
