Pros

The only pro was the ability to work from home

Cons

There is no training given you are just thrown in at the deep end and expected to know what you are doing. Management have a tendency to take on ‘top level’ employees at the expense of those lower down the chain with no thought to how this affects them, their families and their livelihood. Unfortunately this company has failed to achieve what they originally set out to do so this means the employees who have now served their purpose are no longer relevant to the company. Over the last year and half a third of the company has been made redundant but as soon as this has happened there are suddenly more roles being advertised. This company has no idea what it needs in terms of employees and unfortunately they do not seem to care about the effect this has on people as long as you can give them what they want at the time. Please don’t expect gratitude for the job that you do you are doing, even when you are doing the job of multiple people!

Pros

- Genuinely flexible working. Not just lip service. - Strong benefits package, including healthcare and generous time off. - Great office location and a team of capable, passionate people outside of leadership.

Cons

- When the business faced challenges, none of the senior decision-makers responsible for the issues were held accountable. Instead, cuts were made lower down, targeting junior to mid-level roles, to protect upper management and their expensive perks. While the benefits were generous, they should never have come at the cost of good people losing their livelihoods. Senior leadership should have taken accountability and fallen on their swords, rather than shifting blame onto junior teams. - Poor internal communication made collaboration slow and frustrating, even with a flexible setup. - Leadership routinely made promises to customers that weren’t technically feasible, with little understanding of delivery. Teams were pressured to support these claims, even when they were clearly unrealistic. - A strong emphasis on being a "good" company (e.g., B Corp status) often felt like a smokescreen for unethical practices — including data manipulation, dishonesty with clients, and internal retaliation when feedback was given. - Feedback culture was performative. Input was requested, but when it was honest, it was met with defensiveness or worse — consequences. - There’s a lot of talk about "family" and "everyone mucking in", but in reality this masks a top-down culture where accountability is lacking and appearances matter more than outcomes.
