Pros

I keep uncovering more amazing things about working here. Simply Business is a B corp, which truly is driven by leadership and you can sense the high ethical foundations across the business. The inclusion you feel from is amazing. Seeing the way the business supports managers to help teammates going through major life events is amazing!

Cons

There is a lot of information to take in initially - allowing a week or two to truly understand the business before giving urgent and complex tasks helps with being able to deliver and those early 'imposter syndrome' feelings.

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.
