Pros

You work alongside a number of truly amazing and talented people that are recruited daily. There is a level of trust and flexibility that means you are able to get on with the job or task in hand, work remote, etc. You get to work with some of the Worlds leading brands for clients and exposure to big technology vendors, such as Cisco.

Cons

You don't get paid overtime, unless in a support engineer role. Yet there is this expectation that you will work all hours to get stuff done or attend meetings outside of the working day. If you do work above and beyond, you'll be lucky to get it recognised unless you have a vocal stakeholder impacted or with visibility. The pay is below average-average, but it your starting out your career then you may get lucky. Development wise, moving up through the ranks is difficult in your selected field, a little easier if you want to try something new i guess. Skills development only really exists if your in a engineer position. The company itself is very much in the phase of a startup wanting to be bigger, tooling is outgrown or insufficient, processes outdated and under scaled, mentality is very much 'that will do' or mvp, rather than do the job right and to suitable level. In short - under paid, over worked, minimal development, but a great place to at least get your foot in the industry. Wouldn't recommend to someone mid-career looking to grow, unless your willing to invest at least 5+ years.

Pros

I worked on the US NOC for over a year and found Natilik to be a group of phenomenal people. The nature of NOC work is stressful and it’s hard to get away from that but I felt that they cared. They were really supportive and reasonable about working from home through COVID. There are stepping stone jobs and there are career jobs and Natilik could be the latter if you're in the right position. Pay was competitive and the culture was for the most part light and fun. The New York team is really tight and they all care about what they do. If you’re a professional looking to move your career forward then you’ll thrive here and you’ll work with a huge team of other engineers working on lots of different technologies.

Cons

Weekend work. The NOC is stressful. To be fair, there’s no such thing as a relaxing NOC job. The main office is in London and being in the US you might feel a little out of the loop. Also, British English.

Pros

I am based virtually in the US, even remote from home, they make you feel connected in person, weekly social hour (a fine British tradition) virtually , the US VP is a witty gentleman you want to hang out after work for a drink. IT support team will have virtual clinics so they will pro-actively support you instead of submitting tickets. More vacation days than almost all the US companies I worked for, competitive salary, an upbeat CEO and can do team, if you like watching Simon Cowell or Spice Girls shows, or following the news of Richard Branson's or British soccer leagues, you are definitely want to join them.

Cons

I was hired for a specific project and I had exceptions for myself, due to change of the project and how it was structured, it was my decision to move on so I can better exercise my skill as well as better alignment of UK team to complete the project.
