Pros

Very old tech stacks (plural), so: mature and refined, including DevOps stuff. Teammates were good. Smart and skilled, and friendly and nice to work with.

Cons

Very old tech stacks (plural), so: a little decrepit, with some legacy code, and dark corners and knowledge blind spots as most long-time engineers are no longer with the company. Two companies sort of merged not too long ago, so that meant two different codebases needing to integrate and work together. That was very challenging, but we mostly were getting it to work.

Pros

They have good healthcare insurance in Spain.

Cons

Upon joining I entered the Unit Appreciation Rights as part of my compensation, which should give rights to a payout, like phantom shares. It's a classic 4 years vesting timeline with a one year cliff. Upon leaving, I received a notice that they are exercising their right to buy back the rights I had already vested at the "fair market value of $0". This is something people considering joining UserTesting and actual employees should be aware of. This part of the compensation is effectively worthless.
