Pros

Not much to say here, company fires people randomly on the spot. Witnessed at least 12 employees getting fired from all different departments within a course of 3 months of their hire.

Cons

Unprofessional environment, employees are often taken advantage of, its mandatory to stay late and work on projects past midnight hours. Expected to come to work on weekends to finish projects. A manager went against this policy, but was fired. Engineers and managers are expected to take on field tech roles to do labor work on sites. No spousal benefits, no compensation for overwork performed on weekends and overtime until 2-3am. Upper level managers, directors, and executives are all from England, language barrier due to the British accent. Often have to pick up work from the UK.

Pros

Great people, amazing product. Great working environment in cool office. Hardworking and trusting culture.

Cons

None really. Its a young business in the US (the UK parent is 9 years old) and with some tough deadlines - but that's a good thing!

Pros

Solutions offered cater to a very progressive and fast growing industry.

Cons

The experiences I will notate are mine and mine alone: 1) Management: my manager was callous, rude, and used her intimidation tactics to lead through fear. Have a question? Good luck- you will be degraded, dismissed, and thrown under the bus. She told me “work hard play hard” apparently play hard means treat your employees like garbage, Toxic drinking environment- you only fit in if you’re British, toxic, and alcoholic. 2) UK help desk: rude, dismissive, and unavailable. For those who were less tech savvy and ultimately wanted to help the client, they made us feel so looked down on and looked for ways to ignore client needs and make employees look incompetent. They then go to your supervisor who then rails into you and makes you uncomfortable asking questions. 3) leadership individuals: unethical, rude, callous, superficial. Would rather have a failed lobotomy than work for this company. 4) women in this company fail other women
