Pros
- Progress reviews every 6 months supported by development manager meetings, meaning you are given credit for hard work - with promotions/pay rises being assessed at these intervals - Open culture where you can express ideas and make suggestions without fear of being judged, and action is taken if it is a good idea (you don’t have to be senior management to shape the company) - Flexibility in learning about different areas of the business, and opportunity to develop skills in these different areas - Interesting work with hands on experience, and a real chance to develop consulting skills rapidly, especially in the Business Analyst position. - A company culture where I feel cared about. I've had a few sicknesses/emergencies throughout my time at Anmut, and the response from managers to these situations has always been compassionate and genuinely caring. The people are all very nice and I've not had to deal with any office politics so far.
Cons
- The flip-side to the autonomy granted in the position means that there is often no pre-defined process, so sometimes it can be difficult to build from the ground up (although not a con depending on your learning style)
