Pros

Konfir is on an aggressive journey to be the one of the first to disrupt the background referencing and screening industry. The team is talented and diverse, and have quickly found collaborative ways to successfully work together across multiple timezones. You'll get high energy from every team member and a real sense of autonomy in your role as the team and business grows. For those near London, there's a great office space overlooking the canal in Camden, with plenty of opportunity to network with the team socially, if that's important to you. The product has gained traction in the market quickly, clearly validating an innovate solution to a long lasting problem in the industry. This has given the team great access to a wide range of customers for ongoing research & insights, which is rare at such an early stage company.

Cons

As with any startup so young, expect there to be lots of ambiguity and change. Processes are being implemented to create more structure within the teams and ways of working, but everyone is encouraged to be an active part of shaping this, and so your role and responsibilities can be fluid at times. Personally not a negative for me, but worth being aware of.

Pros

Konfir has a lot of momentum behind it; we're backed investors who have previously seen success with our management team, we're one of the first movers into the space, and we have some really talented people. The company is remote-enabled, with team members travelling regularly, but also has a chic office in Camden. In general, the team is fun, with high energy levels, and a distinct problem to solve.

Cons

In typical start-up fashion, things move very quickly. That can translate into a steep learning curve, and the daily need to prioritise. In my experience though, management has always been supportive and helped me figure things out when I was worried about falling behind.
