      Pros

      - Benefits (Yes, you really do get unlimited holidays) - People (Wonderful, wonderful people!) - Work / life balance (Seriously, it does not feel like work) - Variety (So. Many. Things. To. Be. Involved. In) Honestly, the list is endless.

      Cons

      None. Zero. Nada. (Obviously, it's a large (very) and still growing (a lot) business will have it's growing pains… but there's an amazing SLT driving this).

          Business Outlook

          Pros

          - Competitive salary and cost of living pay rises when necessary - Really good benefits package - Unlimited paid leave (yes, that is real) - Flexible and fully remote working. They are being honest about the 'trust from day one' thing! - Everyone at every level is generally friendly and helpful; there's a decent culture of hiring people who are just pleasant to work with—if you're rude or bad tempered, you won't get along here

          Cons

          - Some growing pains, but I think you'd struggle to find any rapidly expanding company who doesn't have those - The very flexible and laid back work environment can occasionally lead to things being a bit disorganised or lacking structure, but it's been minor in my experience

            Pros

            The CEO is amazing, and the Executives/Senior leaders are so talented. There's a strong focus on work-life balance, and trust from your first day. Perks like unlimited leave & flexible working are amazing, face-to-face get-togethers are prioritised even though you're in a remote role!

            Cons

            I have spent the last 19 months searching for a con and still haven't found one..

            Hi there, Wow, such a glowing review. Thanks for letting us know how much you appreciate working here. It's great to hear you enjoy the trust, culture and leadership. Thanks again, The Adaptavist team

              Pros

              Strong culture that promotes well-being and work-life balance - genuinely a nice place to work with great teams of people. Fantastic London office space, but remote friendly set up to go in when it's actually needed.

              Cons

              More an opportunity rather than a con, but typical of a scale-up organisation, some growing pains in places where rapid growth has out-paced internal structure and process.

              Hi there, Thanks so much for leaving a positive review. It's fantastic to hear you value our company culture, London office, and remote working. Thanks again, The Adaptavist team

                Pros

                This company is very flexible and a wonderful place to work. Work-life balance is a must here, and it makes me feel so at ease, especially with three very young children.

                Cons

                Their restructuring process/redundancies aren't well thought out and often very messy!

                Hi there, Thank you for leaving us a five-star review. It makes us very happy to read that the work-life balance benefits your young family so much. Thanks again, The Adaptavist team

                  Pros

                  Talented teams of supported colleagues all working towards shared goals. I've never worked at a company that truly lives its values and puts its people first like Adaptavist does.

                  Cons

                  If remote work isn't for you then Adaptavist may not be.

                  Hi there, Thank you so much for your review. It's fantastic to learn that you're really enjoying your time here and appreciate the transparency. Thanks again, The Adaptavist team

                    Cons

                    Not the strongest workflows and processes so you do need to be able to work initiatively. (not a con, just something to be aware of) Rapid company growth means lots of change

                      Pros

                      The flexibility, The people, The culture, Fully remote so you can minimise distractions, the feeling of being independent, great teamwork. Can take ownership of your role and make an impact. The business is really transparent with its employees which is great.

                      Cons

                      - With the company growing fast, there are often continual changes in structure. - A lot of context switching is required in certain areas of the business - An engineer-first mindset can sometimes create hurdles when developing products (but it's getting better)

                      Hi there, Thanks so much for taking the time to leave a positive review. It's fantastic to read that you particularly enjoy the transparency and independence. Thanks again, The Adaptavist Team

                      Alex L.

                      Applied for a job a few weeks back, got a call from HR yesterday morning about an interview next week. She mentioned she'd shoot me an email with all the interview details, but so far, my inbox is empty. Assuming I'll hear from her early next week, is it normal for them to expect me to show up for an in-person interview on short notice, like couple days?
