You are greeted by your colleagues who come from all over the world to build a great online customer experience. While enjoying a freshly brewed cup of coffee and perhaps a chocolate-covered biscuit, you participate in a short stand-up with the rest of the development team. Everyone goes over their tasks for the day to determine their priorities and anticipate future challenges. This is also a good time to exchange ideas and to identify if anyone in the team needs help or support. During the day, you will work on delivering new implementations for our clients around the world, before taking a break to do some necessary maintenance on already released products. Then at lunch time, you will enjoy a selection of salads, sandwiches, snacks and the soup of the day served at the cafeteria downstairs. In the afternoon, you might discuss possibilities and features for new projects together with a product designer and members of the UX and Operations teams, and contribute to a technical design and roadmap. Then after a day of hard work, if it's Friday, you'll gather in the break out area to enjoy a cold bottle of beer and play a few rounds of foosball. ## Related Videos - [Lessons learned from building a thriving Vue.js SaaS application](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1666-lessons-learned-from-building-a-thriving-vue-js-saas-application) - [Web development best practices in 2021](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/280-web-development-best-practices-in-2021) - [From DevOps to Scaled DevOps: How We’re Rebuilding Continuous Delivery as a Platform](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100018-from-devops-to-scaled-devops-how-we-re-rebuilding-continuous-delivery-as-a-platform) - [The Resilience of the World Wide Web](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1281-the-resilience-of-the-world-wide-web) - [TDD for Vue.js Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/541-tdd-for-vue-js-developers) - [Build and Deploy a Fullstack App with Open Source Tooling](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/775-build-and-deploy-a-fullstack-app-with-open-source-tooling) ## Related Articles - [Fully Remote Software Engineer Jobs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/447-fully-remote-software-engineer-jobs) - [The Best JavaScript Framework to Learn](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/229-the-best-javascript-framework-to-learn) - [How to Find Tech Jobs in Amsterdam](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/279-how-to-find-tech-jobs-in-amsterdam) - [How to land a developer job in Amsterdam](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/36-how-to-land-a-developer-job-in-amsterdam) - [Dev Digest 121 - AI goes offline](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/456-dev-digest-121-ai-goes-offline) - [Software Developer Salary in The Netherlands [2023]](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/217-software-developer-salary-in-the-netherlands-2023)
