Pros

Lots of interesting and varied technology to work with Genuine opportunities for promotion and career growth Many talented and supportive people within the tech teams Very little micromanagement; I felt trusted to deliver my work Large and varied workload, so it’s not a place where you’ll feel bored Recognition and visibility from higher management for good performance

Cons

Like many tech companies, redundancies have created a feeling of low job security A race to the bottom on initial capital expenditure with technology vendors; cheaper solutions often cost more long-term in support and issues Lack of transparency around company changes, with staff sometimes being let go without communication to the wider business

Pros

*Flexibility. I dont always work 9-5. I often travel with my role and happy to work weekends/evenings when required (tenders season). *Balance-work/life *Trust to get on with the job-entrepreneurial attitude. *Opportunity to explore new markets and provide a case to the business *Payrise *MBA application-Glide University

Cons

*Geography- would love to be able to have more face to face opportunities with my colleagues. *I would like to see a transparent pay scale (exc.bonus/comms) across the business.

Pros

I have been fortunate enough to have worked at both small and huge organisations over the last 25 years, and Glide in my opinion is right up there with the worst, and one of my most regretful life experiences/choices.

Cons

Like any other business, there is good and bad; Glide employs some good and even great people, however it often feels like they also harbour and revel in association with some of the worst people! From the CEO that fancies himself a ladies’ man and Temu 007, to the pocket sized CTO that clearly has an unfathomable desire to be known as a ‘tough guy’ by bullying anyone and everyone possible (Jack Russel syndrome).
