Pros

Great friendly people Good opportunities to get involved in big projects Flexibility to work from home Office Free Lunch

Cons

Pay just isn't up to industry average in some teams, you're expected to take on responsibilities way bigger than your role and get told 'we can't pay more', when if you left they would have to pay someone a higher salary to replace you. Leaves you feeling demotivated. No bonus for years. Gender pay gap is getting bigger each year, it's actually very big compared to average for UK. Lots of managers in positions they are just not qualified for, they have friends in the right places and know how to talk the talk. Underneath this it's just people who are under qualified who don't know what they're doing. People taking credit for other peoples ideas. It's really demotivating that decisions get made by mainly white males, it just doesn't reflect the population internally.

Pros

Gymshark really sticks to its core values. The people are awesome and great to work with. Excellent work-life balance.

Cons

As a UK-based company, working in the United States is tough sometimes. We often get information late from our UK partners. The company definitely needs to build out its US office more and add more vital job functions.
