Working under Shabs B has been a highly rewarding experience. He bring a deep level of technical knowledge and leadership to the team, offering clear guidance while also encouraging independent problem-solving. I appreciated his ability to communicate expectations effectively, provide constructive feedback, and stay engaged throughout each stage of the project.

Great learning experience with a supportive team. There were many opportunities to work on different areas of the project and guidelines/communication was clear.

His clear communication and positive attitude made the collaboration smooth and motivating. Shabs created an environment where I felt both challenged and supported, and it was genuinely a joy to work with him.

Shabs was super easy to work with and provided a lot of guidance throughout my project

Shabs is a very collaborative and understanding employer. I enjoyed working with Shabs a lot.

Working at PopIn was an interesting experience, the work was independent and challenging, and had a lot of freedom to go with it. It was a great opportunity to apply my skills in a real-world setting and deliver something end-to-end with full accountability.

Had a great time working with the team, they are very organized and have fast communication. I was able to gain lots of practical experience and learn a ton along the way.

Working with the company on this project has been a highly rewarding experience. I appreciated the opportunity to contribute to a real-world platform and apply my technical skills in a meaningful way. The team provided clear expectations, timely communication, and valuable feedback throughout the process, which helped me stay on track and feel supported. I particularly enjoyed the creative freedom to suggest and implement new features. The challenges I faced—especially with debugging, login flows, and cross-platform compatibility—helped me grow significantly as a developer. Overall, this project gave me practical experience in full-stack development, collaboration, and problem-solving under deadlines. I'm grateful for the opportunity and would be happy to work with the company again in the future.

I gained invaluable hands-on experience applying my knowledge to real-world applications, and I appreciated that Shabs recognized the value of my insights by providing constructive and good feedback.

My experience with this project was not positive. I met with Sheb to understand the scope, and he asked me to lead, saying I had enough knowledge. I worked alone, which limited collaboration but was manageable. From the start, I clarified that there were two target populations: attendees and program organizers. He chose attendees and asked me to focus on sign-up, finding matches, and connecting with matches. I developed a usability test plan, conducted six interviews, and uncovered key insights, some issues were addressed immediately, like removing the confusing QR code. Midway, while I was coding the data, he pushed me to shift focus to event organizers, which required a new usability test, five more interviews, and additional analysis far beyond the 60-hour project scope. With Riipen’s support, I maintained my boundaries, despite his increasing pressure and poor treatment. He also demanded to see how I coded data, though I had already shared this with Ribbon, and it wasn’t part of my deliverables. At the end, I submitted a detailed usability test plan, a comprehensive report, and a PowerPoint presentation. When I called to offer a walkthrough, he hung up the phone on me, which was unacceptable. Overall, this was a difficult experience, but I’m grateful to Riipen for their guidance, and I learned valuable lessons about setting boundaries and handling challenging situations.

Working at Popin has been a valuable experience. The mentorship and regular check-ins have provided consistent guidance and support. I've seen a noticeable improvement in my marketing skills, and I’m grateful for the opportunity to grow in such a collaborative environment.
