Pros

Environmentally conscious, great benefits package and a good work environment even from home. The last bit is based on my own team, but I've heard horrors from colleagues in other clusters.

Cons

Prioritizes processes over people, which might be an understatement. It's hard to get anything that requires infrastructure or security approval done in less than a month. If you're considering Farfetch, be sure to ask if the team has complete ownership over their ecosystem or you will find yourself looking at Glassdoor reviews again very soon. Upper management ignores the fact that things must change, even when the turnover rate is going through the roof. They have been insisting in the same solutions over and over again, with the same outcome.
