Pros
- Mostly friendly colleagues, tends to hire young talent
Cons
- Disfuctional management who consistently prioritise financial gain over employee wellbeing
- Extremely poor starting wages, reluctance to increase pay in alignment with hard work carried out by staff, bare minimum holiday allowance, no other tangible perks aside from occasional snacks or free pizza during meetings.
- No professional/personal development opportunities and little prospect for career progression (often none depending on department). Little acknowledgement/reward for work.
- Loud and intrusive Sonos stereo system with choice of music dominated by two to three long standing employees
- Disruptive and obnoxious "sales bell" that sales team are pressured into ringing throughout the day, accompanied by over the top cheering and applause. This can be heard throughout the entire office.
- Management extremely hostile to genuine constructive feedback from employees and very little resource allocated to rectifying even minor roadblocks.
- Little transparency across entire organisation
- Gossipy and cliquey work environment
- Extrememly high turnover for a small company
- Behaves (and refers to itself) as a startup in spite of operating for over 10 years
