FreeAgent Reviews

Pros

A really welcoming company. I haven't wanted for anything and everyone is always more then happy to help!

I couldn't recommend applying for any vacancies enough!

Pros

I've found this to be a really fun environment with a variety of social activities to take part in. You can join games nights, team charity runs, or just play pool and have a beer after work in the shared kitchen. People are friendly and inclusive and this helps new joiners settle in really quickly.

There is a good work-life balance and although people work hard, there is an informal atmosphere that makes it easy to come to work.

The team lunch on a Friday helps everyone to integrate and speak to people across the company. Sprint demos give people the opportunity to share what they have been working on and hear about what others are working on. Hack days let people come up with great ideas and work on a project of their choosing - a great chance to work with people you wouldn't normally.

I feel very lucky to be a part of FreeAgent and would definitely recommend working here!

Advice to Management

Continue being transparent and making time to hear everyone's views.

Pros

Amazing people to work with, good work environment, very friendly company, reasonable autonomy. Everyone has great enthusiasm for their work.

Pros

A team that's not only highly skilled and intelligent but very friendly. There's nobody at FreeAgent I wouldn't be happy to have a coffee with. Free lunch every Friday, whatever kind of tea you want, and plenty of biscuits - that's if the boss hasn't eaten them!

Advice to Management

Stop scoffing all the biscuits!
