Pros

Development team are great people

Cons

The business advertises for talented Graphic Designers saying they will complete a variety of design work. In reality there is very minimum graphic design work done in studio. You are then paid less than minimum graphic design wage but promised possible career advancements and raises in the interview stage. - I was there for 3 years and told no each time I brought it up. I also had to ask as no one would come to me about it. When I asked to be compensated for design work I was doing for clients I was told by the company's Marketing Manager that it's not in my contract that I do design therefore aren't able to request raises for graphic design. I have never experienced such an anti-employee/human CEO and workplace before.

Pros

Staff that genuinely care about the product and clients.

Cons

Lack of consultation with senior staff on operations of company. ‘Influential’ leadership introduced has heavily influenced poor morale, enforcing an iron fist approach, removing working flexibility, showing zero respect for staff. Multiple high performing staff resignations directly linked to new AU management.

Pros

- The company has talented developers and interesting projects. - Work setup and communication tools are convenient. - Timelines were generally reasonable, and workload was manageable. - Good pay and compensation

Cons

- Feedback and evaluation were inconsistent. My team lead openly admitted limited time to review my work, yet used old or minor feedback as justification for negative evaluations - Decisions made are pre-determined rather than recent discussions or context - Communication with leadership was one-sided - they expected transparency but rarely practiced it in return - Corporate politics if they don't like you - focuses on fault finding over growth where good work was overshadowed by nitpicking
