Pros
- without doubt, the best colleagues you will have ever worked with! I have never met such supportive, kind, caring and enjoyable peers in any other workplace. - great salary (though way too overpaid for a basic job that could be executed by university graduates) - unlimited PTO (though recently capped at 28 days) - company lunches & events
Cons
- micromanagement & distrust from leadership: with recent 2 rounds of redundancies, management has clearly endured extensive stress from investors and CEO and is passing stress down onto their employees. Managers prove to have very high mistrust towards employees and can be extremely disrespectful and immature - they provide unreasonable feedback with lack of any evidence for their comments and feedback. There is clear favouritism across management as well which will change very fast consistently. - ever-changing company mission and focus: Faire loves to preach about one mission and focus and sometimes within weeks, loves to swiftly change to another project and focus, completely obliterating any new process, structure or plan to accommodate the previous mission. It is extremely hard to stay afloat and keep up with the company at times which has a direct toll on employees and their morale. - overpromising on career progression: Faire's career progression is sugarcoated to the max and no matter what promotion received, unless promoted to a manager, the job is ALWAYS the same. It's not challenging or rewarding.
