Pros

* Friendly and supportive colleagues. *Client Support Managers and team members are generally helpful and pleasant to work with. * Good collaboration at the team level.

Cons

* Leadership appears to be heavily focused on delivery and business outcomes, often at the expense of employee wellbeing and work-life balance. * When issues arise, accountability is not always shared appropriately, and responsibility can sometimes be pushed down to individual contributors rather than being addressed at a leadership level. * Job security is a concern. The company has previously undergone significant redundancies after periods of aggressive hiring, and there are signs of a similar pattern occurring again. * It is difficult to understand the rationale behind continued hiring when there appears to be uncertainty around business growth and workforce requirements. This can create anxiety and uncertainty for employees.

Pros

I started at ROQ with a background in manual testing and have been given fantastic exposure to automation testing, tools, and frameworks. The company really invests in upskilling and provides opportunities to learn and apply new skills on real projects. The culture is supportive and collaborative, with approachable leadership and colleagues always willing to help. Work–life balance is good, overall a great place to work in.

Cons

As with most consultancies, workload and projects can vary, but support from the team helps to manage this well.
