Pros

I have had the pleasure of working for Truphone for quite a number of years now. Recent defamatory comments about the business has compelled me to write a 'what is it really like to work for Truphone' post. This company was a very different place a few years back - it has its pros and cons then but I would argue there were more cons. Sure we were a bigger team and had more socials but financially we have never been stronger than we are today. We are known to the world's biggest device and chipset manufacturers, we continue to sign up tier one banks of the world, we have written off our debt and we continue to go from strength to strength. The UK team is much smaller now and its diverse but we work as a team. That can be said for the rest of Truphone offices in other countries. Culturally we are different, personality wise we are different, our purpose in our teams are different but we all have one goal and we are all as I hear this phrase Truphoners. So ofcourse we butt heads often but we get on with it. Besides which company doesn't! Sure, there could be processes and collaborations that could be improved. But the point here is that those who are at Truphone are here because they want to be and make the difference to see this company through the success that it deserves. Leadership listen to you and guide you when required. Your views are respected although may be not be agreed with at all times but thats the flavour of being a professional and being a team player to work it through. We have a flexible easy going environment - most of the teams in the UK are approachable and a great bunch. We have our occasional socials which is now improving and getting more frequent. If you are looking for a 9 to 5, job Truphone is not for you. If you are looking for an adventure where you can collaborate, be part of something big, make meaningful contribution, dont mind rolling up your sleeve and speaking your mind, doing what is right for the business and making friends for life, then you are just at the right place.

Cons

Each day is different at Truphone, it can be good and bad if stability and predictability is your strong suit. We could have more social times but that come from people, not top down. So hopefully as its getting better.

Pros

Very challenging work environment with lots of opportunities Ambitious strategy is working and exciting to be part of When it was announced that we are launch carrier with Apple the place was buzzing Combination of cool Enterprise offering and new IoT strategy is very exciting Smart people

Cons

work life balance is hard to achieve with the current work load can't relate to some of the reviews on Glasdoor, I don't see the negativity in the business few (former employees) express here
