Pros: Solid work culture, offering flexibility and embracing diversity. Conscious effort to support personal development. Delivery focused, but not pushing people to burn out. Product and engineering function powered by smart and skilled people.

Cons: Nothing worth reporting yet.

Pros: - Interesting problems to work on - Smart, pleasant and hardworking colleagues - Great office space

Cons: There are too many delicious snacks in the kitchen, and my waistline is not happy.

Pros: - Many talented, hard-working, and supportive colleagues who genuinely want to do good work. - Generally positive peer relationships within teams at the same level. - Convenient office location and modern facilities. - Some departments still foster inclusive, collaborative working environments.

Cons: - Leadership decisions are often disjointed, reactive, and poorly communicated. Transparency is limited, leaving staff unsure of direction or rationale. - The office move from Stoke to Manchester, along with recent office attendance mandates, felt rushed and inconsiderate of the impact on staff. - Performance standards and expectations vary widely between teams, creating confusion and perceptions of unfairness. - Favouritism is a recurring issue. Promotions and recognition sometimes go to those in certain circles rather than those consistently performing. - Morale across teams is low due to micromanagement, inconsistent communication, and a lack of genuine engagement from leadership. - There’s a noticeable disconnect between senior leaders and everyday employees — charm and visibility at the top, but little authentic support on the ground. - Over-management and shifting priorities make it difficult for talented people to deliver meaningful work. - Career progression opportunities feel limited, and development conversations are inconsistent or opaque. - Culture has grown increasingly political and cliquey, with internal relationships often outweighing merit. - The company lacks a clear, coherent long-term strategy; too many short-term, ad hoc decisions dominate, which undermines trust and stability. - Representation and inclusivity at senior levels remain weak, which sends the wrong message about the organisation’s commitment to fairness and diversity.
