Pros

- Good balance between family and work - Meals 2 times per week, despite their quality. - CEO is really a great human being

Cons

- Career stalled and newcomers are choosen by being former colleagues of some new incoming Directors and not by their quality - Infrastructure leadership is acting as bottleneck for every single IT department, and they don’t know the Farfetch values and don’t respect the CEO vision. - Huge cloud infrastructure, wrongly managed and people who are not specialists on stacks such as Kafka, Rabbit, SqlServer, Cassandra, ElasticSearch, managing that kind of technology. - Internal disputes regarding who owns what.
