I think it is crazy that a brazillian bank owns Cognitect, the creator of Clojure, and Plataformatec, the creator of Elixir. I had never heard of them or new about them being acquired by the same company until a few weeks ago. It must be a really interesting bank to work at :)!

As a user of their services, I'm really happy. It's the only bank I have used with no bureaucracy, zero fees, good phone app, fast and reliable customer support. It's no wonder they have grown so much.

I've also only heard great things about the company culture, specially in the engineering side.

FYI, the creator of Elixir, José Valim, was at Platformatec, but then formed Dashbit.
It's one of the most sought-after companies in Brasil for engineers.
