Pros
Buyagift was a great place to work prior to its merger with Moonpig. Lovely, hardworking people and a great culture.
Cons
After the acquisition morale decreased until it was at an all time low. Long serving, loyal employees left or were pushed out and not replaced, and teams went through endless restructures (read: constant redundancies). Quite often management wouldn't even announce when someone had been let go and they'd just disappear one day. What's more troubling is that almost all of the redundancies on the last few years have been women who are already mothers, pregnant, or on maternity leave when they're made redundant. Buyagift has shown time and time again that it does not prioritize the well-being of its female staff and will discard them at the drop of a hat if they become inconvenient to their bottom line. To women applying for a job here: be wary. To the Moonpig group and Buyagift: do better. It's 2024.
