- work hours are 9-6pm not 9-5pm
- Company claims to only measure quality/quantity of work not hours put in but a lot of extra hours have to be put in to match workload.
- no overtime pay
- company fundamentals needs work - weekend work only paid or time recouped at standard 1:1 rate, little to no real flexibility & no work from home even for staff who work at desks, weak career progression for most
- no inflationary raises as 'you will be rewarded for your work only' to encourage people to try harder to get a 'raise'
- 'work for each other' company value is used as a way to encourage staff to take on other people's work which is fine if occasionally but its quite frequent
- high staff turnover - this can reduce continuity/rapport. This all means members of different teams are being shifted around a lot to cover gaps in workforce during re-hiring. Expect scope of job role to shift from initial job description.
- offers options (not shares) as a company perk
- lot of tasks for scientist role which is should fall into a technician's job.
- feels as if you always have to be 'available' on slack
