Pros

Autonomy: This isn't a place where you're micromanaged. If you see a problem (or want to fix a process), you are trusted to just go and do it. This is freedom and responsibility. The People: The "No Ego" policy is genuine. Everyone from devs to leadership is approachable. The Perks: The benefits (lunch, wellness) are excellent and actually used, not just for show. Growth: We are scaling fast. Moving from being "part of Octopus" to a standalone "Kraken" entity has been a massive challenge but incredibly rewarding to build.

Cons

Pace: It is relentless. If you want a slow, predictable 9-5, this probably isn't for you. Things change daily. Growing Pains: Because we are scaling so fast, processes sometimes break or lag behind. You have to be comfortable with a bit of chaos and willing to build the plane while flying it.

Pros

people are great & give you their time and attention wether senior or not. makes you want to work with/for them. hiring process has been smooth too. feels like not a one size fits all around here but making sure you do what you're good at.

Cons

bit of chaos- but people are aware of it and making it better. also hiring process was a couple of confusions with timings of meetings as I was hired for a US role based out of the UK.
