A delusional 'Fintech'

Pros

Free amenities at WeWork office.

Cons

Drove all of the decent people that worked there out. No communication from mid-level and senior management. Racist, sexist and generally offensive environment. Always discuss in-jokes from previous employers - seems like they miss working at their previous employers? No work ethic from line managers; searching for supercars, the next 'big stag do', vaping in the office, turning up at 11am etc. False promises - hired under the pretence of working for an up and coming Fintech - still yet to see anything come from this.

Pros

Free coffee and beer in the office during the heyday of WeWork

Cons

Writing candidly, the business was a shambles. Supposedly going to launch as a digital bank on the back of large institutional backing from a Japanese group. On the face it seemed like a once in a life time opportunity - get in early, do the job and grow with the company. However, it transpired that the company was actually being run out of a warehouse in Stevenage. Given the current climate where issues of race are being discussed openly across society I feel compelled to highlight, like others have before me, that this business is inherently racist. They make jokes about the supposed Japanese owners and frequently make uncouth comments about other members of staff. Looking online, to this day, they haven't launched this digital bank.

Joke of a company

Pros

Managers are very rarely around and not engaged at all so you can leave early.

Cons

Management team. The company has grand ambitions on paper but general running is laughable. They continually make racist jokes about the Japanese investors you're expected to laugh at, and have little to no client facing experience amongst them. The day to day message is mixed at best, you will generally be asked to hammer the phones promoting tight rates while the mgt sit around googling pictures of supercars asking you to work harder. Anyone in a position of authority is conveniently one of their old friends with very little ability. No CRM, no gdpr adherence, no treat customers fairly and no regulated members of staff, beware!
