Pros
- Generous PTO policy of 20 - 30 days depending on seniority - If you get a good manager, things can be nice. They will stick up for you and shield you from the "accesso bureaucracy". - One Friday a month there is a more chill themed day for events and games - Food trucks every couple weeks. - New office floor is nice, but only select few can work there. - Can work from home when needed (sometimes). - Good company for more junior people, most leave after a couple years for more money and less stress.
Cons
- Open office environment. Some people like it but the seating arrangements are awful and it is very difficult to get much done. - The "old guard" leadership needs to be let go. You have some 10+ year leaders here who have very little outside experience other than how accesso does it. - The stock has dropped from a high of almost 3k to 800 pence. Ouch. Don't expect to make any money off vested options unless some major changes are made to instill confidence in the market. - Poor performers are not handled correctly and allowed to coast because others make up for their shortcomings. - Some of the best employees have left recently. - Pay is low, bonuses are low; Does not match market salaries. - Load weeks are probably some of the worst weeks of your life. DevOps is NOT a thing here. The only devops engineer was chased out by poor management. - Some managers are rude, condescending, and have the personality of a rock (that may be too much credit). - You need thick skin. Some days you may hear questionable comments from certain managers that are borderline fireable.
