I did a phone screening for them once back in 2015. Everything was written in Perl (with no intention of migrating), developers often push modules straight to production, and there are little to no automated tests.
This was all from their HR person on the phone.
They offer more money than most other companies in The Netherlands .. and I think it was clear why. ... I passed.
- wink 8y agoNot a lot of insight knowledge but those coding practices sound worse than what I got from some talks they did. I think they're doing only light testing for features before they push them to production because they're doing so much A/B-testing that all small "improvements" that decrease conversions or $$$ per minute are pulled again very quickly. So it sounded like a lot of small PoCs that then get rewritten properly when the idea is good.
