Pros

I’ve been with the company for over a year now and have been very happy with my experience. Good work-life balance, and the benefits are solid and competitive within the industry. The role consistently challenges me in the ways I’ve been looking for, providing a supportive environment where I can grow

Cons

We are still refining some of our internal processes and ways of working. It’s a work in progress, but it’s expected as we continue to evolve how we collaborate and get things done

Pros

Great work life balance and vacation time....

Cons

Many internal issues and felt like this last round of layoffs was to protect inadequate leaders vs hardworking employees. I understand companies do layoffs but this just felt like Senior management trying to protect themselves because they aren't doing an effective job. I really think there are some issues with the leadership team and it probably needs an overhaul. There was never any strategy from product outside of one small area. The rest of the business was left without any guidance or support. I really think the US/UK shared services model does not work. The UK and US just are entirely different markets and the UK at the end of the day doesn't really care about the US nor move as quickly.
