There's not much that is unique to this company that isn't seen at most growth companies with small headcount:
- At times, long hours
- Shifting priorities
- Unclear objectives (though today this is improving)
Specific to RBS:
- Management spread a bit thin (though this is changing in the coming months)
- Engineering skews quite young; however, over 10 years, it has maintained an impressive level of talent through rigorous hiring practices.
