It's fantastic to hear you value Heywood's culture, people, and learning opportunities. We agree that our Hive days are a critical part of the Heywood experience, designed for both structured learning and individual experimentation to foster knowledge sharing and personal growth.
We recognise that technical debt can be a challenge, and we continue to invest through dedicated projects and embedding a continuous improvement approach. Crucially, we encourage developers to flag and address smaller improvements as part of their daily work.
While building deep product knowledge often requires developers to stay within a team for a while, we welcome conversations about career aspirations. We're committed to aligning opportunities with your goals wherever possible and have a strong track record of supporting internal team moves.
Career progression, particularly the promotion to Senior Developer, is designed as an empowering chance for you to showcase achievements, demonstrate readiness for the next level, and share your vision for the future. The format of the presentation submission remains entirely up to the individual.
Thanks again for sharing your valuable perspective. Your feedback actively helps us shape our business's ongoing evolution.
