Pros

Ffern has been a company I’ve been able to grow with in a genuine, steady way. The seasonality of the work gives a clear rhythm to the year, and I’ve come to really appreciate how each season brings new priorities and opportunities to build different skills. That natural cycle has played a big part in my development. Over time, I’ve been trusted with more responsibility and given space to expand my role in a way that feels earned rather than forced. The autonomy to make decisions and take ownership of projects has made a noticeable difference in my progression here. Overall, my experience has been one of consistent growth - more responsibility, a trusted role, and a work cadence that keeps things interesting without feeling chaotic.

Cons

Location is not great for commuters outside of London

Beautiful Product, But Culture Needs Serious Work

Pros

The product is genuinely well-crafted, with strong values around sustainability and craftsmanship. It smells unique and looks beautiful, making it a really nice experience. The development team is excellent — technically strong, collaborative, and forward-thinking. Good benefits package, modern tech stack, and flexible work setup.

Cons

Workplace culture is cliquey and insular — it often feels like a popularity contest more than a professional environment. Some staff hold fringe or outright strange beliefs that occasionally influence decision-making in uncomfortable ways. If you have nuanced and complex world views, I would not discuss them here. Hiring practices are inconsistent and at times unprofessional. The talent and HR functions lack the maturity and objectivity you'd expect from a brand of this calibre. Many people are not that skilled or have the best attitude, but are good at selling themselves and playing politics. Some comments I heard during my time there from the talent and other staff shall remain untold.
