Pros

There are some really talented team players in the EMEA part of Quadriga that are desperate to make the company work. Many wish for innovation to really grow within the market. Good location for commuting Promising employee benefits

Cons

After starting positively in the EMEA team with a real desire to change the dynamics of the company and move forward, this was unfortunately tarnished by the acquisition of Exceptional Innovation. The teams were micromanaged by others with little experience in their field causing delays and a reduction in quality to work. Morale at the company completely dropped and everyone felt uncertainty and frustration. There was no longer opportunity to grow within the business and the atmosphere was horrible to work in, as well as workloads becoming ridiculous due to changes to departments and cuts in staff. Approve of the Quadriga CEO listed but NOT the US CEO

More recently there has been a change in the ownership and management of the company which has enabled us to ensure that the right management team are driving the company forwards and ensuring that we are continually exploring and developing opportunities in the industry. Innovation is at the heart of what we do, so much so that it is one of the factors that makes up an important set of company values which we ask all employees to demonstrate in their day to day working lives. We are also developing initiatives such as employee suggestion schemes to encourage and explore innovative ideas from those who are at the heart of the business – our employees!
