Pros

The team is full of hardworking, talented individuals who try their best despite the challenges. There’s potential for growth if the right leadership steps in.

Cons

Working at Bolt Insight was an extremely frustrating experience. The company is severely lacking in structure and processes, with everything being "winged" on the fly. The senior management team, especially the CEO and Co-founders, are unprofessional and appear to be only interested in a quick exit rather than long-term success or employee well-being. They overpromise to staff and fail to deliver, leading to a revolving door of employees. The overall culture is toxic, and it’s clear that the company is a sinking ship. I wouldn't recommend working here unless you're desperate for short-term employment.

Pros

Nice colleagues, but that doesn't pay the bills

Cons

Burning through a recent £7M investment by over-hiring and over-promising. The CEO is completely clueless and operating on a different planet—he loves to talk the talk on LinkedIn about leadership and growth, but in reality, his incompetence is ruining what could be a genuinely good business. He specifically favored his network of ex-Unilever colleagues, handing them over-inflated job titles and no doubt matching massive corporate salaries. The growth strategy was reckless, the math didn't add up, and now they are aggressively slashing headcount to cover his tracks. Total lack of stability.
