Pros

Webgains has a great atmosphere with lots of friendly people. There are drinks every Friday at 4:30pm and relaxed working hours of 9:30am to 5:30pm for the rest of the week. Webgains has recently rebranded and moved to a new London office which looks great. It is also a good learning environment for new starters.

Cons

Staff are not treated well at all by senior management. There is next to no communication on company performance (which is directly tied to employee bonus) or individual progression. Whilst the company's rebranding looks great, it is simply dressing to distract from a lack of technological development. Promises have been made to produce AI technology and a new platform, but a lack of progress and innovation has been hidden behind a new logo. Opportunities for career progression are severely limited, with a convoluted team system which holds team members back. Salaries are also not competitive compared to competitor networks and pay rises and personal reviews are often rejected. Many of the issues and requests for more communication have been raised with senior management on several occasions but they have never been addressed. They are too focused on the opinion of competitors on social media sites rather than the morale of the internal teams.

Pros

Good manager who cares about employees and their career growth. Quarterly company outings and team-building activities. You have complete autonomy as long as you deliver good results

Cons

It's a pain to work with European colleagues, especially London, when you need something to get done. They promise you stuff but rarely deliver anything. You can only rely on yourself.
