Xero reviews

Don't expect any support once you have a family. They've lost all that made them great and human and you're now a number rather than an individual. 60% of your working hours now MUST be in the office ( even if you previously had an agreement in writing) , which doesnt support working parents or people with extra needs. They're great at supporting you with Maternity leave but once you're actually a parent you'll be told 'it was your choice to have kids' and you wont be accommodated for your life choices. Even if its a MINOR reduction in office hours. When asking for flexibility, I was discouraged from making a flexible working request because what would be the point, it'd be a no. Ended up working ridiculous hours to accommodate culture rather than supporting a healthy work life balance. Huge lack of progression and given unlimited hoops to jump through. Lots of unpaid opportunities with no real future roles. I'd recommend Xero as a great place to work if you're unattached and have no kids, otherwise dont bother.

- Management where I was was a mess. I had 6 managers in the 3.5 years I was there which is ridiculous to me! This meant I grew a lot personally and professionally but had no one in my court to help me grow up in seniority as they all had been removed or not around for long - My last manager was bias, refused to offer support when I needed it and kept putting me down on my achievements - The second team I was in made no progress to ship work out whatsoever and everything was being cancelled/paused which was demotivating - There is a culture of putting people into the "not good enough" box which is de-humanising and insulting to those who do still work hard
