Avantages
I'll try to summarize what are the strongest traits of the company: - Qustodio is, above all, a company where employees are heard and taken into account. Employees have several different channels to communicate their concerns, and to send suggestions for improvement. - Every year we perform a personal review with every team member, in which all parties agree on setting aspirational goals and review their progress on the technical, professional, salary and company role sides. We perform a mid-year review to follow-up. - We make periodic 1:1s to understand what is the mood, and review people's needs and feedback. Everything is shared under the umbrella of a safe confidential environment, and the outcome from these meetings is discussed and handled immediately. - The technical team is given enough empowerment to be the real owner of the product's new developments. What we want to do is to solve our customers' problems, and everybody has a voice to contribute with ideas and experiments. - Teams are autonomous and technical knowledge is shared periodically across them. Teams are stirred to be self-managed. - People is offered the possibility of trying new technologies and thus expand their technical skills. - Qustodio encourages their people to have technical debates --there are scheduled meetings for each technical chapter and Friday meetings on demand. Team members can share their suggestions about training, methods and team dynamics openly. - There is a flexible policy for people's working hours. Working from home policy was totally adopted by the company long before the COVID situation.
Inconvénients
Qustodio, like any other company out there, has a lot of areas to improve. Please, be open and provide feedback --it will be heard.
