Pros: The team here is fantastic, really collaborative and supportive. I learned a lot working on complex e-commerce platforms. The office in Porto is modern and has great amenities. It's a fast-paced industry, which keeps things interesting, and the company culture generally encourages innovation.
Cons: Sometimes communication between departments can be slow, leading to minor delays on projects. The pace can be intense, which occasionally impacts work-life balance, especially during peak seasons. Some processes feel a bit bureaucratic for a tech-focused company.
Advice to Management: Focus on streamlining cross-departmental communication to improve project efficiency and maintain a healthier work-life balance for the teams.

Pros: I liked the hybrid work model they offer. We generally got 2-3 WFH days a week, which was solid for my work-life balance as a Junior Software Engineer. The London office environment is pretty cool, too.
Cons: Sometimes the flexibility feels less flexible when project deadlines hit hard for engineering teams. It's tough when you're expected to be available late, even on WFH days. There isn't always consistent support across teams for true asynchronous work.
Advice to Management: Try to enforce boundaries more consistently, especially around project crunch times. True flexibility needs leadership buy-in at all levels.
