      Pros

      The best people I've ever worked with. On the whole the employees and teams were very welcoming and friendly. Many people make the effort to get to know those in other teams and are always working hard but keen to have fun too. Good overall atmosphere and culture.

      Cons

      General communication was awful and the way employees were managed in and out of the company was unacceptable. There was a high turnover of staff during my employment, with a number of staff disappearing overnight with no communication or explanation - having been fired or terminated effective immediately. People who cared about the company and worked incredibly hard to improve and progress it were dropped without warning. The senior management can often be unprofessional and favouritism is rife. A number of fires, hires or promotions within the company appear to happen based on favouritism or lack there of. Individuals who were good at their job but weren't favoured by management would be dismissed and those with little experience or ability but friendly with management would be hired or promoted. When handled in an incredibly unprofessional manner, it's put down to Fourth not being very good at looking after their staff - something that simply isn't good enough!!

      We are very proud of the fact we have such great people here at Fourth so I am very pleased that you mentioned this in your post. Communication can always be improved and if we want to continue to grow as a company and keep our employees, motivated and informed, this is extremely important. In regards to promotions, where a new role becomes available, all interested employees are invited to apply for the role and will be interviewed. It is really important that we are transparent in our selection process and an open, fair interview process creates this foundation. As we continue to grow, I agree that we must protect our culture and act in accordance with our company values.

      Pros

      Very few pros come to mind, there were some great people on the individual contributor level I worked with across multiple teams however many left or are on their way out.

      Cons

      This is a highly toxic and disorganized work environment. Leadership’s lack of knowledge, direction, and experience is apparent. When I started, leadership was disengaged and disconnected to everything. I noticed there was a sudden and obvious change in leadership’s approach where “urgent” asks from above were being requested with little to no context. Unrealistic and changing expectations started being communicated as the norm. This caused confusion, chaos, and burn out, resulting in extremely low morale across teams. Concerns and feedback were either ignored or people were penalized/suddenly terminated for speaking up. Lastly, it doesn’t go unsaid there is no work life balance or professional boundaries here. This is a work environment that sets people up for failure and can have a serious impact on overall well-being.
