Pros

There are some really talented and energetic people working here and the pay is alright.

Cons

Unfortunately, it is really hard to stay motivated working here for multiple reasons: - Burn out - Constant shifting of priorities - A lot of instances of “Do as I say not as I do” - Pirical cannot hold onto new or old staff Also, I must agree with earlier reviews regarding the lack of empathy and guidance for entry-level/juniors at the company, management can be quite harsh and it definitely looked like they did more scolding than actually trying to upskill them!

Pros

Founders that empower individuals to make decisions, whilst offering guidance and support along the way. Opportunities to learn and grow professionally, including trust to meet clients and prospects in the UK and ability to travel to the US too. Incredibly collaborative environment and an amazing team, many of whom have been with the business 6+ years. Lots of socials and activities to keep a fun company culture too.

Cons

Bootstrapped business means pace is slightly slower than companies that have raised funds. The benefit is that there are solid fundamentals but steady growth rather than rocket ship.

Pros

The people on the lower levels are friendly and intelligent.

Cons

Like the recent review has stated, the management here are ruthless. I felt the need to confirm the review as people need to be warned before joining this company that if you join there is a very high chance you will be let go within the first few months. I've seen many hopeful people join and their careers ruined after being let go by this company with sudden notice (some only having been here for 2-3 weeks). Check the dates of the 5* reviews, most of them are from 3 years ago when I can only assume things are different. There's a lot to say, and I've been lucky (if you can call it that) by surviving probation, but really it's a case of being let go or staying long enough to see through the facade and then wanting to leave.
