Pros
- The UK team (particularly engineering) are the most talented, friendly people I've worked with. I would work with them again in a heartbeat. - Culture in the London office is great. - There are lots of interesting engineering challenges. - It makes other companies look better by comparison.
Cons
- The main product is a smorgasbord of technical debt and poorly implemented new features. - The CTO's main qualification appears to be 'owns a computer'. - The CEO hasn't been heard from in many, many months. - Mass firings every six months or so. Always with the assurance that it's the last time because they've righted the ship this time. - Lots of people have resigned without being replaced, leaving a skeleton of a product team and no HR department in some offices. - If you need as much as a stapler, you need to ask the CFO directly. He will refuse.
