Pros

Great culture with socialising with colleagues - lots of engagement in office with social events Very flexible - working location and remote friendly, flexible start/end times Interesting work - get to be flexible in your role and learn across many different areas Professional development - budget and time allowed Non-salary benefits - life insurance, income protection, options, flexibility, PD budget, EAP

Cons

Favourtism/nepotism - clear that there are certain groups of people that get better opportunities based on who they know and how much they are liked Extremely fast paced and broad - a lot of burnout and stress leave had to be taken by staff, no clear focus on priorities and have to work across multiple different projects at one time Prioritisation of growth and profit - heavy focus on this and resistance to taking a break/slowing down to reassess priorities Restructure in early 2023

Best experience is to be living in Wellington at the office, remote is good too, but the office is way better.
