Pros

Great product, much better than competition Flexible working, not chained to your desk Contribution to gym membership paid £34 Car allowance £500, better than nothing I suppose Healthcare plan ok Pension, they finally put one in place because they had to, worse pension ever !

Cons

UK office is diabolical, just awful place to work, no privacy, terrible acoustics, if people on the phone you can’t hear anything Parking is a joke Distance from train station even worse, why Bracknell, slow slow service station line Exec team needs a shake up, run by engineers. UK sales leaders all 3 so far fired, just stupid ridiculous bad hiring from US exec team. Almost all staff resigned and left due to the most recent one. So slow to make decisions and put things in place No operations support, long evenings on the phone to get simple stuff done. So frustrating because you can see how good it could be. UK team always made to feel inferior to the US No investment being made in UK

Pros

The product is great, and you get some of your gym membership paid for!!

Cons

Since being at Egnyte I have witnessed in the past 3 years 13 people leave In EMEA. No investmentment or autonomy to do anything. Long working hours due to the 8 hours time lag . Politically incorrect for such a small team . People playing one another off too stay relevant.

No care about employees.

Pros

The direct teams were great; team lunches, nice working environment, contribution towards gym.

Cons

No care towards employees during pandemic. Cut jobs across the board globally whilst still increasing revenue... all the comments below are true so no need to reiterate them. It was a great company when I was headhunted by them but when management started to change, so did the culture. We were all booked to go to SKO and then it was decided to have roadshows, so that the executive team could spend more time with the teams globally... poorly executed and the CEO had little interaction with anyone other than his phone during this time... no leadership from the front. Bullish management style that stopped you looking forward to going into the office. Luckily some WFH all the time, due to reporting lines elsewhere in the world and avoided it. Again, there was never any leadership from the front.
