Pros

Laterooms provided me an ideal environment to grow both from a professional and personal standpoint. I learned more working for Laterooms than I did in all my previous years, the rate of change in the company offered me opportunities to constantly be learning and growing as a professional. I had the opportunity to be mentored by people that were at the top of their game in our industry, preparing me for the next step in my career. From a personal stand-point, the company supported me through hardships that could have very well damaged my career severely had I been working elsewhere. I truly loved working for Laterooms, changed my life, I will be always grateful for having had the chance to work side by side with such a great group of people.

Cons

A rapid changing environment is always challenging. While I do not think its necessarily a negative thing, it is something to be aware of as on Laterooms everything is constantly changing and evolving.

Pros

Technically strong teams to work with. Get to learn new things and team members are open to teaching. Good work life balance.

Cons

Management has serious issues. Too many ppl with too many ideas and none works through.

Thank you for your feedback and I'm pleased that you found the IT and work/life balance of your role fulfilling. I'm not sure when you left the company but the last few months have seen a major restructuring of the senior management team with a strong focus on decisiveness and strength in both our existing and new marketplaces. Over the last 12 months we have seen a consistent organisational transformation to focus our efforts around our new technology platform, with strong support throughout the company as well as reaching out to our teams with engagement surveys and leadership and management training. Whilst we have to acknowledge that this shift has been painful for many people, we have also received feedback from a number of long-term IT team members that our current model is the most rewarding and progressive structure they have worked in. We realise that we will never be perfect but we do seek continual improvement throughout the company and will always welcome ideas and insights to address problematic areas. Any member of our team is welcome to chat to any member of senior management, or concerns can be raised through the townhall or Q&A sessions and will always be addressed and responded to.
