low tech, low fun, low respect - Software Engineer Unipart Employee Review

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. Unipart continue to make a significant commitment to invest in our digital team and associated technologies – we have a start-up philosophy with established company backing. Whilst we always listen to constructive feedback, we feel that your points are not representative of the values and behaviours we demonstrate here at Unipart. Our digital team benefits from being a small team within a large and established company, tackling problems which have immediate and long-term impacts. Providing an Enterprise Warehouse Management system (WMS) Unipart Digital Enterprise System and Data Science services to our internal and external customers. We work with a range of languages - predominantly Python - and try to adopt the best of both the academic and open-source cultures, having a high-degree of independence, and working on multiple challenging and strategically important projects. We highly value intelligence and curiosity, and welcome people from the Arts and the Sciences; our team includes lawyers, classicists, philosophers, and musicians as well as scientists and engineers and those with no formal training. We recognise that great programmers come from different backgrounds, and therefore the most important aspects are intellectual curiosity, creativity, and the "hacker mind-set”. We have friends and ex-colleagues working together as our colleagues recommend our team and company as a great place to work. This is reflected in our strong employee engagement scores and regular social activities – with colleagues choosing to spend time together outside of the typical working day. We are a friendly group with great flexibility in working times and locations, a well-stocked kitchen, and a welcoming ethos! With 99.99% infrastructure credibility we offer a robust service to our clients and continue to develop our products and services to lead Unipart in the 4th Industrial Revolution. Once again, we thank you for taking the time to leave a review and wish you well for your future career.
