Pros

Working at Kraken offers an exceptional experience with its innovative projects, collaborative and supportive environment, and strong focus on professional growth. Employees enjoy a healthy work-life balance, flexible working options, and a diverse, inclusive culture. The leadership is approachable and transparent, fostering a motivating atmosphere where hard work is recognized and rewarded. The sense of community is strong, with regular team-building activities and social events that enhance relationships and a sense of belonging, all contributing to a workplace that prioritizes employee well-being and development.

Cons

While Kraken provides many benefits, there are some challenges. The fast-paced environment can be demanding, leading to high pressure. Communication across different teams can sometimes be lacking, making collaboration more difficult. The complexity of the projects can be overwhelming. Despite the strong sense of community, remote work can sometimes lead to feelings of isolation, and efforts to foster social interactions could be improved.
