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.
