Pros

Fruit bowl Pool table (will get scolded if used) Very “relaxed” dress code from management

Cons

Inappropriate Behaviour in Interviews: Starting from square one, my interview experience at Enreach left me deeply unsettled. Being referred to as "handsome" during an interview was not only unprofessional but also deeply inappropriate. It set the tone for what would become a series of disappointments throughout my time with the company. Inadequate Training: Once onboard, it became apparent that the promises of growth and development were nothing more than empty rhetoric. The training provided was shockingly minimal, leaving employees ill-equipped to meet the demands of their roles. It was disheartening to see such a lack of investment in the success of the team. Subpar Onboarding: The chaos of the onboarding process only added to the sense of disillusionment. There was a distinct lack of organisation and structure, with no training plan in place to guide new hires. I was left to introduce myself to other teams who were caught off guard and unprepared due to the incompetence of my manager. The absence of formal introductions from Senior Leadership Team (SLT) members only served to reinforce feelings of insignificance. Lack of Feedback: Feedback, or the lack thereof, was another sore point in my experience. Instead of constructive criticism, management mainly relied on motivational speeches, reminiscent of scenes from "The Wolf of Wall Street." It was a stark reminder that the real world isn't a Hollywood movie, and employees need tangible feedback to grow and improve. Blatant Favouritism: The pervasive favouritism within the company only served to exacerbate feelings of disillusionment. It was demoralising to see certain individuals receive preferential treatment while others were left to languish in obscurity. What's more, the favourites often received more work assignments, ensuring their success while others struggled to keep up. Such blatant disregard for fairness and meritocracy was deeply disheartening and needed to be addressed immediately. Unstable Job Security: The constant uncertainty surrounding job security only added to the sense of unease. The conniving relationship between HR and management left employees feeling disposable, with no assurances about the stability of their roles. It was a stressful environment to navigate, to say the least. Discriminatory Environment: Perhaps most disturbingly, the discriminatory tendencies within the company cast a dark shadow over the workplace culture. People of Colour (POC) and women faced systemic barriers and exclusionary practices that had no place in any modern workplace. It was appalling to see such blatant disregard for inclusivity and respect when backs were turned. In conclusion, Enreach's culture fell far short of fostering a supportive and equitable workplace. Urgent action is needed from management to address these issues. Further discussion can be initiated by reaching out to me directly.

Pros

Very friendly and competent team members who are eager to help. Excellent HR team with lots of courses, free language lessons, good onboarding etc.

Cons

Toxic manager in my team. If manager wants you out there is no process or team involvement in the decision, it is completely up to the closest manager. Enreach has adopted the 'Holacracy' system of management, where there supposedly are no managers, but certain managers have not yet adopted that so there is a mix of two systems which is incredibly confusing.

Pros

• The work was technically manageable and perfect for a junior role, providing an excellent learning environment. • The meetings team was amazing, fostering a collaborative and supportive atmosphere. • The manager was genuinely helpful and supportive when possible. • The Product Owner was an exceptional person, contributing to a positive experience.

Cons

• Experienced a company-wide layoff that impacted approximately 20% of the workforce, including myself. While the advance notice was appreciated, being let go despite positive feedback and strong performance was disappointing, especially as a junior. • Compensation was below market standards, even for an entry-level position.
