Pros
- Generally, nice colleagues who believe in the product. - Large open plan office, well maintained and new. - Yearly company meet-up is a highlight and offers a good opportunity to meet the wider team. - Intention to promote internally. - Strong pub culture bringing colleagues together. It can feel somewhat cult-like though if you don't regularly participate.
Kontras
- Poor work-life balance. No one forces you to work long hours, but comments are made and judgment bestowed if you try to do 9-6 and avoid working on the weekend. 10 hour days are considered normal. Sunday working, basically essential. - The salary is very low and the OTE is a lie. No one has achieved what is promised to you in the first year, and only a couple of BD's in the second year. The gap between senior management salaries and the rest of the company is also significant. - A feedback culture is talked about a lot, but not generally practiced in any meaningful way. The structure is there, but nothing is truly being implemented. - Not the worst blame culture, but still not great. There is a tendency for comments, opinions, and judgments to be openly aired at the pub to the wider team by members of senior management. - Intention to promote as mentioned in Pros, but more of an intention than actual fact.
