Pros

I only had a 1 month notice period

Cons

- Sweatshop environment for SWEs, where you will be worked to the bone and micro-managed by people of low talent who know virtually nothing about engineering - Many staff are being forced to take on additional responsibilities without a pay rise - some are essentially running subsidiaries while earning 50% less than they should - Staff pressured into filling out internal feedback forms and posting positive reviews here on Glassdoor - Timesheets and little trust given to engineers - Fear-driven environment where you will be constantly made to feel afraid of losing your job - Aggression, bullying, and shouting, overall, a shockingly poor culture - Extremely low pay, with many employees earning up to 50% below the national average for their profession - 2 rounds of redundancies per year - Frequent re-orgs Only accept an offer from this company if you're desperate.

First off – I’m very sorry to hear about your experience – especially the bit about shouting and bullying. That’s not something that we recognise, and not something we accept – so if you’re comfortable please do drop me an email and we can set up a chat as I’d really like to find out more. On your point about forcing people to leave give feedback and leave positive reviews – that’s just not something we do. We regularly provide to opportunity for people to share thoughts through engagement surveys and we do mention GlassDoor when people have feedback to share – but it is entirely optional. Please do drop me a line as I’d really like to better understand your experience so we can do something about it - jbrain@clearcourse.co.uk.

Pros

The business has changed a lot from when I started to now. There has been significant investment in the payments product to help ensure this is a product the businesses are able to embed payments. The changes in structure have also helped support more agility and focus on each business with more sense of ownership on the work and outcomes you drive. The addition of new businesses as well gives new opportunities to learn and develop skills. There are ways to progress however due to the flat nature of the business it is more likely to move sideways rather than up. The organisation focuses on paying for performance which means working hard does pay off. Extra time off at Christmas is a great addition to have in your holiday.

Cons

High expectations which can be difficult to meet. Pay reviews are slightly below the market.
