Pros

People for most part are supportive; technology is innovative, and management has its eye on the future.

Cons

Does its technology qualify as renewable? Blooms management isn’t sure. This is emblematic of the main con - the company wants to expand its footprint and increase growth and development; however, it doesn’t know how to get itself there or what exactly management wants this company to be. Management keeps harkening back to its old and outdated procedures, rather than revamping and revising its approaches. This makes things so much more convoluted and complex than is necessary to get the job done.

Pros

A mature start up feel. No two days are the same, lots of interesting projects to work on and given the opportunity to have an impact The people are a highlight. Teams are collaborative, driven, and full of smart individuals who are genuinely invested in what they’re building. There’s a strong sense of ownership, and you’re given the opportunity to contribute in a meaningful way regardless of level.

Cons

There really are not any major cons so far. It is 5 days in office. And whilst I am local and enjoy coming in a little flexibility would be nice. That said there's a great gym, good restaurant and free EV charging so I like being here!
