Pros

- Talented and hardworking team members who are committed to the team and product. - Opportunities to work with amazing brands in a fast-paced, start-up environment. - Some strong leaders who genuinely care about the well-being of the team and company culture.

Cons

- The company culture at Shook Digital Oy is, in my direct and honest assessment, and completely toxic. - A pervasive atmosphere of fear and anxiety. Employees are hesitant to speak up, voice concerns, or admit mistakes due to fear of negative repercussions and blame. Trust in leadership has severely eroded. - Certain Directors exhibit a consistently hostile and bullying management style. This includes aggressive communication, public criticism, and intimidation. Feedback is often delivered punitively rather than constructively. Finger-pointing is the name of the game.

Pros

The biggest strength here is the people. The team is smart, motivated, and genuinely cares about building something meaningful. You work closely with leadership and customers, which gives you a much deeper understanding of the business than in larger companies. The company is honest about being early-stage and about the challenges that come with that. There’s no illusion that everything is finished — instead, there’s a clear ambition to build toward something bigger, especially on the AI and platform side, while still delivering real value to customers today. If you’re curious, proactive, and comfortable taking ownership, you’ll grow a lot here in a short amount of time.

Cons

The pace can be intense, and it’s not a traditional 9–5. You need to be comfortable with change and with building things while flying the plane.
