Great perks, but management and nature of work leave you wanting for more
Senior Software Engineer • Former Employee
London, England, United Kingdom
June 10, 2024
Pros: - Remote first
- General policies are flexible and employee friendly
Cons: The management has red signs of working and running teams. They are browbeating, myopic, and retaliative.
It is a struggle to get satisfying and impactful work, even as you try to generate it for yourself. It is not well-received.
