Engineering

  • Stable Code Base

    Das Team legt einen großen Wert auf eine qualitativ hochwertige und stabile Codebasis.

  • Documentation

    Es wird großer Wert auf eine nachvollziehbare Dokumentation der Applikationen gelegt.

    Kommentar

    Documentation in code is sparse, documentation on product structure and where to find what does not exist.

  • Continuous Delivery

    Der Prozess vom Codecommit bis zur Produktion ist hier bestens automatisiert.

    1

    Kommentar

    No automated testing, code is considered 'tested' if it runs on the developers and reviewers machine. Builds are done and published by just a few people in the company.

  • Modern TechStack

    Das Team hat die Möglichkeit, immer mit den modernsten Technologien und Tools zu arbeiten.

    2

    Kommentar

    Using Rust for new components is a plus, but development relies on a mailing list, which makes it really hard to efficiently determine which patches still need review. Patches sometimes just get lost, manually tracking which of their changes already made it to production is left to the developer.

  • Open Source Contribution

    Das Team legt viel Wert darauf, Open-Source-Software der Community zur Verfügung zu stellen.

    Kommentar

    The codebase is fully open source and AGPLv3 licensed. Members of the team often contribute to other projects and prefer to go through the process of making changes upstream

  • Product Participation

    Entwickler sind nicht nur Umsetzer, sondern können auch Produktentscheidungen beeinflussen.

    Kommentar

    Developers decide themselves what to work on and how to prioritize their work. Product decisions are made by just implementing it and hoping that it gets accepted. Minus points here, because it's rarely communicated what people are working on, and

  • Meeting Efficiency

    Hier verschwendet kein Mitarbeiter zu viel Zeit in ergebnislose Meetings.

    2

    Kommentar

    There are no meetings, which one might intuitively count as a good thing, but since there is no incentive for communication, quite voices die out while confident ones dominate the conversation. Made me miss dailies and weeklies, for the knowledge exchange, knowing what everyone is up to and speaking openly about technical problems that one might be hung up on.

  • Agility/Adaptability

    Das Team schafft es schnell auf Kunden und Markterfordernisse zu reagieren.

    4

    Kommentar

    If an issue is pressing, usually someone quickly takes the issue and the release can be sped up significantly if it's important enough.

  • Project Management

    Hervorragendes Anforderungs- und Projektmanagement sind hier selbstverständlich.

    2

    Kommentar

    Requirements (if existing) are usually only communicated verbally. Management is close to not existing, everyone works on what they deem important. The issue tracker is mostly used for external bug reports and feature requests. People sometimes don't assign themselves to an issue while they are working on it, resulting in doubled work, which can be frustrating if one already spend a few hours to days on it. It's not clear, who has expertise on what, which can be very difficult when starting out. Teams in the classical sense don't really exist, collaboration is rare. Code review on can take very long.

Career Growth

  • Technical Training

    Hier ist das Team immer am neuesten technologischen Wissensstand.

    Kommentar

    You can take the time to learn something by yourself, but there is no monetary support for trainings or the like.

  • Good For Junior Devs

    Hier sind Juniors besonders herzlich willkommen und werden auch dementsprechend gefördert.

    1

    Kommentar

    While the company accepts Junior devs, there is no further advice, support or oversight. Juniors are expected to train themselves, or 'grow with the problem' I guess. The complete lack of feedback can really destroy one's confidence and stress handling ability.

  • Career Opportunities

    Ob neue Aufgabenbereiche oder der Umstieg in das IT-Management, hier ist alles möglich.

    3

    Kommentar

    Hard to say from my time at the company so far, but what I can say is that the procedural and technical skills don't translate very well to other companies.

  • Safe Environment to Fail

    Hier können Mitarbeiter schnell Neues ausprobieren und aus Fehlern lernen.

    4

    Kommentar

    Developers are given the absolute freedom to try and explore new things, I only wish that there would be incentive to share what one has learned with the team, instead of quietly dismissing it, if it wasn't applicable at the moment. Learning from mistakes can be hard without proper feedback.

  • Freedom at Work

    Das Team lässt Mitarbeitern den nötigen Freiraum bei der Arbeit.

Workingconditions

  • IT-Equipment

    Das Arbeiten mit modernster Hardware und Infrastruktur wird hier ermöglicht.

    Kommentar

    Recent and powerful workstation and ultra-wide screens.

  • Work Flexibility

    Sowohl flexible Arbeitszeiten, als auch die Möglichkeit von Remote Arbeit, werden geboten.

    3

    Kommentar

    Working hours are flexible, with core hours from 10 to 15 o'clock. Remote work is not intended and frowned upon, even with good reasons like a sick partner at home with a highly contagious disease that has recently kept the world in suspense and a high likelihood that you are also already contagious.

  • Office Equipment

    Tolle Räumlichkeiten inklusive einer guten Ausstattung machen den Arbeitsplatz hier besonders.

    Kommentar

    Can't complain, current renovations also seem very promising

  • Work-Life-Balance

    Die Arbeitszeiten bewegen sich in einem normalen Rahmen, auch ohne Gruppenzwang zur Mehrarbeit.

  • Salary & Perks

    Es werden gute und gerechte Löhne bezahlt, mit attraktiven Zusatzleistungen on top.

    Decent salary and benefits like Klimaticket and Jobrad

Culture

  • Teamspirit & Fun

    Alle arbeiten gut zusammen und es herrscht eine gute Stimmung im Team.

    3

    Kommentar

    It's more like working side-to-side on the same product. Everyone wants it to succeed, but the lack of teams and collaborations sometimes lets one feel like you have to face every problem on your own.

  • Communication Culture

    Mitarbeiter sind stets bestens informiert und können offen ihre Meinung äußern.

    2

    Kommentar

    Rare communication on what is planned for the future. It feels often like critique is acknowledged but not acted upon, or you get an explanation why your on the spot idea on how to solve the problem is wrong, without addressing the underlying problem. I'm sure there are counterexamples of that, but that's what I've seen in my time so far.

  • Team Diversity

    Die Teammitglieder sind unterschiedlich in Bezug auf Geschlecht, Herkunft und Alter.

    5
  • Appreciation at Work

    Dieses Team weiß die Leistungen der Kollegen gut zu schätzen.

    Rarely more than 'thanks, applied!' on the mailing list. Would probably be better if there were any feedback meetings
