Great place to work
Great place to work
- great colleagues: low ego, high intelligence. They've kept me here for a long time.- strong engineering culture (testing, architecture reviews, no-fault post-incident reviews - we're all here to learn together)- great place to grow your career- lots of responsibility (some may view this as a con - if you don't want ownership/responsibility, this is not the place for you)- very good benefits package (electric vehicle leasing, decent pension contribution, work from anywhere)- management that leaves space for personal circumstances- very strong work-life balance but also flexible working (want to take a longer lunch break in the winter to maximise sunlight and work later? Sure!)
- salary isn't as high as some other fintechs
- diversity in tech isn't very good (especially in tech leadership) although tbf it's probably no worse than anywhere else
- lack of CPO means that product tribes tend to work in isolation and optimise locally
- keep doing the CTO's monthly listening sessions
- hire a CPO
