Pros

From the human side this is a 10 out of 10, great people. Several possibilities to explore (tasks, fields of expertise) helping to best express your strenghts in the role.

Cons

Maybe the office in Bristol should fancy some renovation or rethinking for such a fast peace company.

Pros

- Very friendly team and some incredibly smart people. You'll learn lots. - Good work/life balance and (mostly) relaxed atmosphere

Cons

- Lack of leadership in Bristol (feels like the root cause of a lot of the issues) - No real HR department; no performance management, etc. - Lack of progression; both career and pay. - With core admin and decision making happening in Japan there’s a bit of a “us" vs. "them” divide. Timezones and language barrier can be an issue too. - Bare minimum pension contribution - Office could do with some renovation - lots of damp patches! - Stock price isn't doing great (TYO:4425) - Can be incredibly inefficient (e.g. long meetings with no agenda that nearly always overrun) - Can feel pretty chaotic at times
