Pros

Been here a few years and have enjoyed the most of the time since I have been here. There has been plenty of growth and there seems to be an upward climb with recruitment. This is the first place I have worked where you have what they call "People Principles". I think this is a good motto to have as long as people do not take advantage of it and it seems as if the employees really seem to like this about Fractal.

Cons

What is most frustrating is the salary base and lack of meeting deadlines. It is most frustrating when you may be asked for something; especially when the impression it is urgent, but then only realize after fulfilling this request it not utilized as quickly as it had appeared. Decision making takes way to long or maybe that there are to many opinions that need to be considered before a decision can be made. There are way too many surveys as we are so inundated there is no time for so many surveys. Also many of these survey do not apply to administration staff and will not let you get around those questions unless they are all answered.

Pros

The company's client centricity is exceptional, with a deeply embedded focus on delivering value, reflected in a strong and loyal client base built on high levels of trust and credibility. There is a significant commitment to AI research and forward looking capabilities, alongside a clear investment in building a people first culture over time. The company is well regarded in the market with a strong foundation for continued growth

Cons

TMT suffers from ineffective leadership at the helm with little visible effort to grow capabilities or drive meaningful outcomes. Exec contribution to growth is largely absent, making the net impact negative. Cultural values are not consistently reflected in day to day execution. It has a pattern of positioning other teams negatively including Growth, Tech, AI, and PA rather than partnering, which creates real friction with them resulting in loss of opportunities. There is genuine talent within the team being held back by leadership that prioritizes internal politics over building real capability, resulting in shallow vertical capabilities. The gap between what the company expects and what leadership enables the team to deliver is significant and consistently unaddressed
