Pros

Excellent peers and immediate managers Well organised and efficient IT

Cons

Toxic senior management - every task is given with "xyz C-level is watching this so you better perform". Shocking level of criticism behind other employees backs. I felt very uncomfortable hearing this from a C level exec. Terrible HR department - miscalculated pay and took over 2 months to provide P45 after resigning

Pros

Supportive people, a strong culture, and meaningful flexibility are the biggest positives. I've had the chance to work with thoughtful colleagues who care about doing good work and helping each other succeed. There are solid opportunities to learn, build relationships across teams, and contribute in a way that feels impactful.

Cons

Workloads can be heavy during busy periods, and priorities can sometimes shift quickly (which is expected in growing companies)

Pros

Remote work and decent pay

Cons

Really depends on the team, however middle management needs to be addressed. Toxic culture that truly depends on who your manager is. Silent layoffs are made to seem "Performance-based", then job is re-posted at a reduced range. Proceed with caution and understand that HR is not your friend.
