Pros

Some teammates are nice and helpful

Cons

Everyone is overworked and burnt out. Very disorganized schedule, everything is last minute and rushed. There is no clear roadmap. Too many managers in one project and conflicting interests among them. Drama, people talk behind each others back. Gossip is appreciated and expected.

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.
