Pros

Benefits are on par with other tech companies. The London office is the HQ, so there are lots of socials and office events employees can enjoy.

Cons

Cliquey, political tensions were high during my time, and I had to watch what I said or shared because people would twist it and use it against my team. Most of the old-timers have left or been pushed out in the last couple of years.

Advice to Management

Set a standard and stick to it, instead of bending rules for some people. People shouldn't be treated differently based on how close they are to the CTO.
