The worst company to work for in the tech industry

Pros

The only positive is the RSUs but you’ve got to survive a toxic culture and the constant RIFs to benefit from them

Cons

Where do you start. The most toxic work environment I’ve ever experienced. Ruthless executive leadership. No empowerment. No resources. Terrible processes, systems and tools. Total disregard for employee wellbeing & mental health - forcing people into the offices during the Covid pandemic because they don’t trust people to work remotely. The opposite of customer centric.

Pros

Interesting leading edge technology, really bright colleagues, a great place to progress and very attractive rewards. Immense flexibility and free Vimto.

Cons

A lack of effective management, inability to enforce coding standards, group politics and a lack of focus reduce what should be an excuse to excel to a moderately underperforming company. A lack of hard technical training prior to action slows projects. A lack of teamwork.

Good Pay

Pros

Ok base salary and great stocks/bonus Work colleagues are very supportive

Cons

Politics within the management chain means unattainable deadlines are initially set and then a game of poker is played as to who takes the blame for project schedules shifting. CEO is actively monitoring office attendance, no working from home allowed unless it is a weekend/Bank holiday or the evening. Teams lurch between waiting ages for marketing to signoff on projects to having far too many active projects in one go.
