Pros

Hard to think of any apart from early leaving on a Friday

Cons

Terrible onboarding process with few interactions with middle management. Hiring on a lower wage than previously and thus taking advantage of the government lockdown with other companies' recruitment processes frozen. Management scheming and setting up a new joiner to fail. Hardware provided for work not fit for purpose. Overall, if you are brave enough to experience a toxic atmosphere, then go for it. Otherwise, save yourself the hassle and take your experience and talents elsewhere.

Hello Anonymous. I'm incredibly sorry that you felt this way about Waracle. This is not a review that I recognise or that rings true. We strive to look after our employees, it's one of the foundations of the Waracle culture. We would never hire somebody with a view to firing them; it costs a vast amount to hire, train and onboard a new employee. If you would like to contact me to discuss your experience directly please feel free to do so - Angela Rieu-Clarke, Waracle HR Director

Pros

There are lots of great, talented people in the company.
 Remote-first approach works really well.

Cons

The process of redundancies that Waracle recently went through was shocking. All made in an unceremonious fashion with lack of empathy, clear communication or transparency from top management. It sends a signal that you didn’t matter enough. It’s a real shame that the company who’s passionate about the people can’t do better.

We're sorry that you have felt this way regarding our redundancy process which was supported by our legal team. As with any new process we have taken lessons from it and will always endeavour to improve. For information, every person made redundant from Waracle is offered job finding support and an enhanced redundancy payment, regardless of their length of service. If you have not yet spoken to us directly, please reach out to us.

Cons

- high stress environment due to impossible deadlines agreed to in client contracts - lack of career progression - no promotion pathway - no time for L&D - large number of redundancies across the past 24 months sucked the soul from the company
