Pros

- the Budapest team has a uniquely great work culture - work on products that will be in the next generation of smart phones/smart appliances - lot of great technical development opportunities - lucrative equity based bonuses

Cons

- base pay is very mediocre, nobody would work here without the RSU bonus - recruiters do a horrible job of explaining the bonus system, make sure to calculate everything yourself before signing

Really appreciate you sharing this perspective – especially your view on the team culture in Budapest and the opportunities to shape the future of tech through our products. That blend of collaboration and technical challenge is what we strive for. We’re proud of our equity program and how it aligns long-term reward with impact, but we know it’s only effective if it’s clearly understood. Your comments about how it’s communicated are concerning, and we’ll take that seriously. If you’re open to it, please share more detail with the People team so we can improve how we onboard future candidates.
