      Pros

      - Amazing volunteering opportunities and a chance to make an impact on the local community, as well as volunteer with animal rescue charity partners - Lots of genuine care for squad members at Co-founder and Leadership team level - Great company benefits, e.g. flexible and hybrid working, dogs in the office, amazing new office space and breakfast served in the office each day - Friendly and caring squad who show genuine care and respect for one another - £500 learning and development budget each year: a great opportunity to explore personal and professional growth and development - Actions are actually taken off the back of Engagement and DEI surveys: squad opinions really matter and feedback actually sparks changes - Huge focus on DEI and employee wellbeing through team and location focused initiatives

      Cons

      - The team is growing very fast, meaning there is a consistent fast paced environment at Butternut with few low periods in the year.

      A fantastic place to work

      Pros

      I’ve been at Butternut Box for nearly 3 years, and I can honestly say it’s one of the best places I’ve ever worked. The company really cares about its employees and goes above and beyond to create a positive and supportive work environment. From day one, it was clear that Butternut Box values its people. The leadership team is approachable, transparent, and genuinely interested in creating a culture of trust and respect. There’s a real sense of teamwork, and everyone—from senior management to team members—works together to make sure that we’re not only meeting our goals but also growing both personally and professionally. The benefits are really good. They offer generous health coverage, wellness programs, and flexible working options, which shows how much they prioritise work-life balance while supporting business needs too. They have recently introduced a sabbatical benefit, and they really encourage taking time to recharge.

      Cons

      Honestly, there aren’t many downsides. Like any fast-growing company, there can be periods of change or restructuring, but the leadership team is always open to feedback and works to ensure that everyone stays on track and feels supported during transitions.

      Supportive Team, Growth Opportunities, and Strong Culture

      Pros

      Values are very important at Butternut, we live and breathe them everyday and this forms the basis to our fantastic, strong and tangible culture . Work alongside great people. So many brilliant minds with a wealth of knowledge and experience to draw upon. Fantastic perks and team engagement. I think you'd be stretched to find a company that invests so much time and effort in team engagement. Culture of continuous feedback. This has been something I personally value a lot. We're all encouraged to give feedback not just as part of a feedback cycle, but as part of the day-to-day which I have found hugely beneficial as it helps me understand what I've done well and how I can improve on this. There's never a blame culture as we're all encouraged to embody our valuse of Strive for Better. Encouraged and supported to do your best. Lots of support from management, direct teams as well as internal stakeholders.

      Cons

      Communication could be stronger as sometimes messages can get lost or not reach an entire audience. Butternut has put things in place to address this and it is improving so I'm confident this won't be an issue going forward.
