Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re pleased that our flat structure and career model are seen as positives, as these are intentional aspects of our culture designed to encourage collaboration and long term careers rather than fixed timelines. We also recognise the concerns around cost management, offshoring, and progression. Feedback like this helps inform how we continue to evolve.

Pros

Entrepreneur mindset that allows you to grow outside your specific box, if you choose. Supportive leadership in helping you achieve your goals.

Cons

Have to pull for growth, not handed to you. You have to be aggressive and ask for what you need.

Great work environment and nice management

Cons

there was little training for the intern position, so come prepared with some finance skills, just the basics
