I am truly sorry you feel this way and I have clearly let you down whilst working at VU.CITY. I fully respect your opinion, but would hope that the work we continue to do to articulate and demonstrate the great potential of the company is now much more obvious since you left.

Pros

A unique product to work on and most individuals are amazing people

Cons

Not much career progression; lacks emotional and technical support; company culture can be misogynistic and money-driven; unfair firing has happened in the past.

Thanks for your feedback and useful input. Since your departure we are about to introduce many more benefits for staff, not just around remuneration but also around time for training and more freedom to test new ideas.

Thanks for the feedback. I am well aware that we had some issues in the first couple of years in operation, and as a startup I do feel we lacked direction and focus. However, I also feel that we have come so far since the early days and would hope that the work we continue to do to articulate and demonstrate the great potential of the company is now much more obvious since you left, with clearer direction and focus across the whole business. Sadly we haven't been fueling too many evenings with Pizza recently, but do hope we can return to hard working pizza evenings soon!!!!
