Flexible working, fast pace and plenty of space to grow

Manager

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Flexible working, competitive pay, truly unique benefits for staff and a leadership driving change and innovation in a gem of a company. The company has a lot of space to grow and at all levels you can tangibly drive that growth. Anyone who worked in big-tech pre covid knows how valuable the work culture is here, and the occasional high pressure moments are more than worth it. Moving here was my best career choice to date.

Cons

There is a friction between legacy staff who like things “as they are” and newer employees who’ve seen other environments and can bring fresh perspective but generally are not empowered to do so. It’s a good challenge of identity vs progress that most companies experience at this stage, but it is a big challenge.
