Pros

Being able to help pet owners with their pet's needs

Cons

The company allow children who have never been told no to be in management positions across the whole company. They tell you they want people to "stick their necks out" but when you challenge the status quo or verbalise your ideas, you are torn down and made to feel like a nuisance. They have a complete disregard for mental health. HR will tell employees who are already in therapy to use an app for life coaching. Although they are fully aware this is dangerous to overlap treatments without actual medical advice. Management will throw you under the bus as soon as they feel like their job could be in jeopardy. They will stop at nothing until you quit from constructive dismissal as they don't want firing you on their hands. Management are also all best friends, but are constantly talking behind each other's back when they are out of each other's earshot. It doesn't provide you with much confidence that anything in the company would be confidential. I've never felt more mentally unwell than I did when I worked at this company. Not to mention that they continue to make more and more employees redundant. But not before getting them to train their replacements. Disgusting company, spineless children running the show and an actual danger to people's wellbeing. Avoid at all costs.

Pros

Product is good, pay is okay, management try to be nice people.

Cons

High pressure environment due to equity ownership, demand for high sales with very small product count, constant poor choices made based on misleading promises senior management told investors.

Pros

The products themselves are decent, and there are a few individuals within the company who genuinely try to do good work

Cons

* My experience was overwhelmingly negative. I was repeatedly thrown into complex tasks with no real support, clear direction, or proper resources. When issues arose, I was singled out and held to standards that other colleagues were not. Mistakes made by others were overlooked, but mine were treated as personal failings. * No room for growth or grace either. Any "improvement plans" set in place by management were extremely short and felt punitive rather than developmental as there was little time given or any genuine opportunity provided to demonstrate progress. Follow up meetings lacked any real intention to support employee growth either. * There also appears to be a troubling pattern of discrimination against women. During my time there, a few female employees were made redundant in a short period, raising serious concerns about fairness and bias within the organisation
