- they're growing impressively and that's why they've opened 8 positions (6 for PHP developers and 2 for iOS)
- the team operates in Scrum (2-weeks sprints)
- there's a legacy as the project had been launched quite a long time ago. However, the customer decided to renovate it, and now the team is rewriting the project to some up-to-date language.
