Pros

Good to be part of the development environment at Boring Money. Good communication between team members. Developer has a say in choosing the right tools / technology / third party service for given a task. Exposure to new technologies. With its challenges the process is professionally supported by other team members with more experience. Great product management, easy to understand and well documented Jira tickets. Designs available for all UI changes no need to wonder how a UI change should look. Never been asked to work overtime.

Cons

None that I can think of since I joined

Pros

1. Small company, big ambitions with a founder, Holly Mackay, who leads from the front with a mission to make financial services and products easier to understand and use. She understands the consumer's viewpoint and isn't afraid to voice her opinion. 2. Exceptional access to a network of key figures in finance, lays a great foundation for both the consumer and B2B parts of the business. 3. Products and services focused solely on finance an important tick, as other firms lose quality when spread over different sectors. Something I've experienced first hand. 4. A small team, approx 20, (but growing) are all pulling in the right direction, no-egos blocking projects, willing to work across other stuff not their own. Having worked in large companies, I've witnessed ambitious "team" members talking a good game, not contributing and been at the front claiming credit. 5. Yes, it's a busy company and the work-day is full-on, but it's a start up/scaling up business, and you learn a lot (even after some 25 years+!!). 6. Excellent location above Bond St station, and senior management have embraced flexible working. 7. Social side now scaling up (Covid restrictions allowing), with a couple planned in.

Cons

1. Fast-paced, busy, and always need extra resource (which firm doesn't??)
