Pros

Nice Office in central London, they provide state of the art mac pro laptop and 5k screen. Team Lunch, winter/summer company party.

Cons

Highly toxic environment, some managers acting like kings, they can decide to dismiss you without any relevant justification, ** Please read the work contract carefully before joining this company** Nepotism is very common, Definitely a place where you will be labeled after 3/6months as enemy or friend. If you are a minority stay away from this place no minorities representative in the management team. But if you are young in search of some work experience definitely try it, for senior IT professional I will not recommend this place.

Pros

Everyone is really kind and helpful. People stay for the company culture.

Cons

Absolutely no upward mobility. No promotions or raises. The company is in a tough spot financially. It's very sellable but customer retention and growth is a major problem and no one has the answers to solve for it.
