Pros

Decent benefits. Learning, Health, Working from Home

Cons

Where to start... Things were fine until the summer of 2022, when the decline set in. Making half the tech team redundant, even though it is tech that the business is built on. This continued slowly into 2023 using PIPs and other means to finally cut the team to 5 full-time onshore developers (from over 30) After a failed launch into France, the decision is made to stop trading in France, but they reward the failing managers with SLT board member places so they can continue with their "great work". A new CGCO Officer was appointed who systematically removed good people doing good work. These people were soon replaced with two "close friends" of the CGCO at director level. Product Direct who achieved absolutely nothing during my time there and a Growth Director, who has only managed to grow her own team to 25+ - 5 times the number of onshore developers left. On top of all that a new CTO was appointed, who in my opinion, is way out his depth. No “team meetings” and more 1-1 meetings with the aim to divide and conquer, so nobody has any idea of the vision. He also has little or no knowledge of the technologies used to drive the day-to-day services. If you are thinking of joining Modern Milkman then my advice would be "don't" - you will be over worked, and underappreciated until a time when you are classed as surplus to requirements and forced out.
