Avantages

It's a big company with lots of cash in the bank. They work at a big scale. Shahzad Younas is an excellent, driven, and charismatic CEO. They ensure you maintain a good work / life balance.

Inconvénients

Egocentric / elitist culture. CTO (Pe*** Mc*******) is not technical whatsoever so not suited to the role. High staff turnover. Old, bad quality PHP codebase. Horrendous onboarding process. Team of introverts, dev meetings / catchups are lifeless. No passion to better the product from the developers, everyone is just fighting fires.

Thanks for your review - and sorry things didn't work out here. We've come on quite a journey, with the backend team under new leadership and the team itself nearly doubling in less than a year. We're making solid progress as we transition away from Go and rebuild our entire architecture as well as other greenfield projects well underway. Always painful at the beginning but in time the fruits of this work are becoming increasingly apparent.

Avantages

When I joined Muzz, I wasn’t confident in my skillset at all. Despite a thorough and diligent interview process, I was genuinely surprised to receive the offer. The work culture at Muzz is intense and fast-paced, and at first, I found it overwhelming. But looking back, that very intensity is what accelerated my growth. Learning on the job boosted my confidence in ways I couldn’t have imagined. I was given real ownership — trusted to manage my stakeholders independently, and my input was valued from day one. I could always approach the CEO, whether it was for a chat or a coffee walk, and that level of openness really stood out. The Head of Data and the entire senior leadership team were incredibly supportive — they actively encouraged us to put time in their calendars whenever we needed. I always felt safe asking “stupid” questions, and my ideas for solving problems weren’t just welcomed — they were implemented. I’m leaving Muzz with a heavy heart. The version of me walking out the door is worlds apart from the one who joined, and I have Muzz — and a great data science team — to thank for that. I wish the company nothing but continued success.

Inconvénients

As with many fast-moving startups, there’s room for more structure and processes. That’s not unusual in a stand-up culture, but it’s something that could evolve as the company grows. I’d also love to see more diversity within the engineering team. That said, both the CEO and CTO are genuinely open to having these conversations and care about making progress in this area. HR has also been outstanding — always approachable, proactive, and supportive when it comes to hearing and addressing any concerns.
