Thanks for your feedback. We're pleased to hear you appreciated our flexible working policies and benefits, those are core to our remote-first approach and something we continue to invest in. We’re sorry to hear that your time at Mews didn’t meet expectations. We know that growing at pace can create moments of ambiguity, and we’re continually working hard to strengthen leadership, improve planning practices, and clarify ownership. That said, we want to respectfully challenge the suggestion that “very few people know what they’re doing.” We hire smart, driven people who care deeply about their work, and we’re proud of the calibre and impact of our teams at Mews. Feedback like yours helps us improve, and we wish you the best in your next chapter.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts, and for your long-standing contribution to Mews. We’re glad you appreciate the friendly culture, remote flexibility, and investment into our Prague office. We recently finished refurbishing the space to create a hub for offsites, events, and visitors, and it’s great to hear that’s been noticed. We understand that as we grow, things can feel more structured. While we’re adding rigour to support long-term success, we remain committed to protecting what makes Mews special: a culture of exploration, ownership, and care for each other. On compensation, we’ve recently introduced salary bands to make our approach more transparent and help people make informed decisions about their pay and progression. We know expectations evolve as companies scale, and we’re continuing to work on clarity and fairness across the board. Thanks again for taking the time to share your experience.

Pros

It is the first place where I have been able to be my true self, there is not place for judgement, everyone's ideas get heard and valued. You are not just one more, you own what you do.

Cons

The pace can be very demanding, but it is a very fun challenge.
