Pros

NoMuda is a small but growing company with good people and a great software product. Junior developers will enjoy a leisurely introduction into the software industry and will undoubtedly gain a lot from contributing to a world-class manufacturing system, however staff retention is a problem at NoMuda and many are not motivated to commit to a lengthy service here.

Kontras

Staff retention is a problem. NoMuda has ambitious growth plans however growth has been, and will continue to be, hindered by the CEO who rarely delegates to his experienced team. Most, if not all, product decisions require his personal involvement and sign-off and this has been a growing bottleneck for years. Software specifications take the form of hastily prepared PowerPoint slides which rarely provide sufficient detail. These are prepared by the CEO who simply doesn't have the time for all the duties he is bestowing on himself. NoMuda is run more like a family than a business, and if you don't particularly share the passions of the owners (dogs, country life, model planes, scuba diving and clay pigeon shooting) you may find it difficult to gel with them. The company needs to relocate to sustain growth (it is currently based in a remote barn conversion on an active farm) however the possible choices of local premises is being dictated by their suitability for walking the dogs or flying model planes nearby.

Reaktion von NoMuda VisualFactory

Hello, thank you for your feedback! I'm really glad you liked working on our product. We are proud of it and our customers love it. This is one of the reasons we have had some of the "Growing pains" you experienced, we have become more successful than we could have predicted 5 years ago. The development of the business is ongoing and we are aware that there is more to do. As an example of the lessons we have learned, there is now a full-time HR Manager to help with people and a dedicated Scrum Master to improve how our developers work. In terms of the building, we have recently acquired more space at the site and there are more plans on the way our General Manager is looking into. We are very lucky to have ample parking here which we like, rather than making our employees pay for parking in Stratford for example. We are committed to continuing to make positive steps to be a great place to work and are always seeking like-minded people to help us achieve this.
