Pros

No egos that gets associated with sales. We all work hard toward our goal. Management very approachable and welcome input. Fast growing but even in the UK they really try to keep the team spirit with events and Mondays a day to meet up with everyone at the office. This is your differentiator even though you don’t realise it! People want to work with people. Employees need recognition and to feel like they belong and are valued. Please don’t lose this. You provide these so tell people about this. Flexible work hours is a major major bonus, if someone can start at 8am and finish at 4pm, this is a huge, huge incentive. Working from home is another huge incentive. Met one of the founders on my first day. Pizza every Monday to the office. Free snacks etc.

Cons

Takes time to build credibility. Onboard training could be quicker. Sell yourselves more as an employer, you provide all the good things but you need to sell this.

Only do winter interns from my knowledge, so intern period is very short.

Pros

We can essentially use AI without any limit right now. The pay and compensation is industry leading but that's how they get you to stay.

Cons

The engineering organization is technologically stagnant — from CI pipelines, to sec/ops practices and overall architecture, everything is locked into legacy practices with little room for outside perspectives. Attempts to introduce modern tools or new ideas are consistently met with resistance rather than curiosity. There's also a stark tenure gap. Most engineers leave within a year or two once they recognize the limited ability to drive change, while those who stay long-term — often 8+ years — have rarely worked outside this environment and lack exposure to broader industry practices.
