Thanks for your feedback, it's appreciated. We are hungry, pragmatic and promote collaboration within and across teams. But we may not be the right place for everyone and I won't apologise for that. Our latest survey results confirmed that people felt Iress was a diverse employee (incl in engineering), and 78% said their people leader is a great role model....so if you are interested in discussing your experience with me directly, please get in touch.
