Pros

Salary is normal for the market.

Cons

Lack of Support: Employees feel unsupported by their supervisors, with little guidance or feedback on their work. High Stress Levels: The constant pressure to meet unrealistic goals creates a high-stress environment, leading to burnout and dissatisfaction among team members. Blame Culture: Instead of fostering a supportive environment, the team often blames each other for mistakes, creating a toxic atmosphere where people are afraid to take risks. Unrealistic Expectations: Management sets unrealistic deadlines and expectations, resulting in excessive stress and burnout among staff. "We are delivering fast" mentality that burns the people of the teams. Toxic Work Environment: The workplace culture is negative, with instances of favoritism and unprofessional behavior among staff. Disengaged Leadership: Leadership seems disconnected from the team, failing to address concerns or provide the support needed to foster a positive culture. Poor Management: Leadership lacks vision and direction, leading to a disorganized and ineffective work environment. Managers lack empathy, they care only for deliverables. Poor Communication: The management updates employees on important changes at the last moment, leading to confusion and frustration. All decisions are taken by the top. No Team Building Activities: The company does not invest in team-building activities, which could help improve relationships and morale among employees. Frequent Conflicts: There are frequent conflicts and disagreements within the teams, which are rarely addressed, resulting in a tense work environment.

Pros

Fully remote with well-adapted processes (this has changed for some roles but not engineering) Adequate PTO allocation for UK employees Decently friendly culture Whole company runs lean to avoid layoffs Sensible business strategy, likely to still be here in 10 years time

Cons

Admittedly minimal layoffs have been disguised as performance issues in the past "Running lean" seems to apply to salary increases too, so teams tend to lose quality talent to other companies without having enough slack to cover the losses Waterfall methodology disguised as Agile, planning is rushed and then it falls to the engineers to pick up the slack in the implementation
