Pros

- Great opportunity to partner closely with exciting clients - Nice office perks (breakfast etc., although rationed to portion sizes towards the end!) - Not an aggressive, transactional recruitment culture - Approachable CEO

Cons

- Uncompetitive compensation - Poor personal growth structure that lacked consistency, combined with a 'one size fits all' approach and goal posts moved around for OKR rewards. - Overly complex shared commission structure which is sold as an incentive to win as one company, however evolved into a profit-before-people culture (was deducted bonus from an issue with payment from a client/role which I had zero involvement) - Although great to heave a female trio on the CEO board, all male management team with clear favouritism and bias to certain individuals who had closer personal relationships with them. Lack of drive to balance out the gender inequality. - On occasion misogynistic, bullying and blame culture well hidden from the board
