Pros

The company and management are great and very supportive, and have been great about working from home

Cons

The offices have moved from central london to west london so the commute would not be very long, but this is not a problem at the moment as we are still working from home due to coronavirus

Good company to work for!

Business Outlook

Pros

Multiple benefits (flexibility, discounts etc) Various events all year Office location in central London Great staff screening and charity events Free coffees and multiple perks

Cons

Career stagnation, no way to progress and they rather hire external candidates from big competitors than promoting internal staff. Low salaries. No bonus below manager level. Opportunities seem to happen a lot in the US. It’s all about who you know otherwise you’ll never progress even being there for a few years!
