Pros

Nice office and facilities in central London Mainly remote and flexible working

Cons

Layoff happen often. Long hours unpaid Very challenging to have a work life balance as you can work long hours. Management are clueless on how to hire the right people for the business and gives technology teams a headache with unrealistic project deadlines and goals. Management are incapable to communicate with other areas of the business where the tech solution focuses on.

Pros

Excellent company. Clear winner in the sector. Treats its people well even as it manages through business cycles and need to be leaner in some areas. Committed to maintaining industry leadership through heavy investment in best content / products.

Cons

Nothing major. Could move faster at times, but making progress there.
