Pros

Formul8 is like one big family, you either fit in or you don’t. For those who do fit in, this is home. Talented colleagues. Great work. Demanding (but reasonable) boss. A double edged sword – you’ll work on a lot of projects with very tight deadlines, but at the same time it forces you to get good fast. Having said that, if you can survive here, you can thrive anywhere. MD (Mother Dragon) values hard work and genuinely cares for you more than just an employee. However this does not give you a free pass on the high standard of work she demands. Amazing welfare – overseas company trips, company bonding sessions and playful office culture.

Cons

Crazy project timelines, you’ll never be sure what time you can leave the office. Say goodbye to your social life from Monday to Friday.

Pros

Glassdoor needs a minimum of 5 words in the pros comment box. I have one. NONE.

Cons

turnover is FAST. I saw 5 people leave in 2 months. Long hours..11pm is early. 2am is normal. You are expected to return early morning the next day. The long hours spent in the office is not even productive because employees have low morale, are uninspired, and have lack of direction. Boss is degrading.
