Pros

The team is fantastic! They genuinely function as a cohesive unit, with everyone consistently eager to assist and support one another.

Cons

It's a very hire-and-fire environment here. Every month, there are new faces coming in and others leaving. Newcomers don't seem to have much opportunity to accomplish anything. Management communicates in a highly condescending manner with the team. There's a significant issue with miscommunication, and it seems like management shows little care or respect towards the team. The environment is very micromanaged and heavily focused on KPIs, despite promises of a mature work atmosphere during the interview process. As a senior with expertise, you might find yourself constrained in your approach to work

Pros

The office is quite quirky and fun to work in, the team is generally very friendly. They can be quite generous when it comes to looking after their people - team lunches, drinks, food in the office, etc.

Cons

Micromanagement, no proper training, managers make you feel bad about asking questions. They say they are welcoming of people with no past experience, but will have unreasonable expectations of you. Were aggressive when I resigned. Their commission system sees that you won't get paid if you resigned before the quarterly payment period. You also HAVE to work in the office 3x week.
