Pros

Remote Co-workers are great Work culture is very accommodating

Cons

Lots of do-nothing meetings Management is terrible about communicating what they want Management solicits input only to ignore it Command-and-control wrapped in "Scrum" clothing Company talks about innovation but seems stuck in a rut with no clear direction. Future prospects are unclear.

Thank you for sharing your review and positively remarking on our great remote working community and accommodating work culture. With regards to your comments on the number of meetings, we recognise that many of our teams have lots of meetings in their calendars, and we encourage teams to review and challenge the necessity of meetings. We’ve also recently introduced Wednesdays as our “no-recurring meetings” day at Cirium, encouraging employees to focus on deep work and development. With regards to communication and input, we strive to cultivate a culture open to innovation and input. We would like to apologise for your experience and, if you feel comfortable, we would be grateful if you could reach out to a member of our leadership team to confidentially share your experience so we can ensure we act where change is needed.
