Pros

Good location, willing to hire people new to the workforce

Cons

So much nepotism, favouritism Won't shell out money for access to legit market research/marketing analytics databases but expect high quality results Paying for followers on Telegram, resulting in trolls posting porn on the company's channel Unfocused, jumping from project to project High turnover Kept postponing my performance review hoping to keep me working at minimum wage

Pros

- Super friendly coworkers! I met good friends over there :) - Bagel every monday - Place confortable to work, sometime cold - "Monthly" events were very fun! - Good area: located in Yorkville, many restaurant around, easy to transit - Excellent to learn as a first job! good moment to learn new technologies and to learn working with different team (backend, web, mobile, qa, ..)

Cons

- Lack of communication! I would constantly ask for update / progress. sometime I felt using Slack would solve most communication problem but still it should be part of the company culture. Also need good documentations to improve the communication between teams - Not so well organized team: Jira is not used well, feature were planned at the last moment. We would never know what's next, and sometime I would involve an entire boring month at the office. The few things that was planned was almost never release on time! - No bonus or extra hours paid: We would stay late for release or hot fix but never get paid for those hours. We don't officially have end of year bonus - Money focus rather than User focus: Skrumble is exclusively founded by investor, most decisions are driven for them. - Not so much open: I felt ignored when I suggested new tools, process, feature, ... Didn't get the credit when an idea/work was actually used!!!
