Pros

Great culture High independence on how to approach your work and lot of responsibilities Excellent work-life balance

Cons

It's not a con, but since it's a highly ambitious place and a young tech company, priorities and organizational charts change quite a bit. You have to get used to being comfortable with change.

Pros

Bending Spoons is like one of, or maybe THE best workplaces in Italy. It provides people with unprecedented opportunities to grow, learn and foster innovation. Here anyone can have a true impact, and can set the direction for their careers, finding opportunities that are aligned with their passions, so if you're in it for a good challenge, this is likely the place where you want to be.

Cons

You have to be ready to accept that we have uncompromising excellence standards. This is not a place for everyone: you are required to be outstanding. Keep in mind that this on the other hand allows you to be surrounded by the best people.

Thanks for the great review! It’s fantastic to read that your experience here has been positive. We agree that setting the highest standards for ourselves makes Bending Spoons a special place to work—but it also adds to the challenge, which can be stressful. As usual, feel free to reach out to your leads or any other relevant Spooner whenever you notice possible improvement opportunities.

Pros

Ask anyone what's the best thing about Bending Spoons—everyone will give you the same answer: Spooners. Spooners are extremely talented and motivated, they are the best people you can meet in your life. Working with them gives you the chance to learn and improve everyday, no matter your level of expertise. It's also motivating: The healthy competition of being surrounded by capable and effective people pushes you to do your best. You are always able to trust your peers, and you will enjoy the result of their work, rather than being frustrated at their mistakes or inattention to details. Same applies to the management: I have great trust in everyone who's leading the company. I often trust others more than myself, which is not usually the case outside of here. Also, Spooners are nice people. You will likely find many friends in here. Besides, the company is awesome. You can still feel a startuppy attitude, despite the growing size. Things are handled with sharp logic and pragmatism. Finally, this is not just a regular "employee" job. If you join, you join a mission, you feel part of it, and you have a stake in the company too.

Cons

Impostor syndrome: you will likely feel it a lot, and this can be daunting sometimes.
