Pros

I work with a great team that communicate and work well together. There is flexibility around wfh and work hours, but when it's important, all hands are on deck. The bonus' they have for staff every once in while is a nice perk. Free fruit, drinks.

Cons

It weird that they make you take some of your holiday allocation in order for them to close the office for Christmas. You have to buy our own computers and don't get any allowance for it until you've worked there for 3 years. Departments are not aligned with managment and visa versa, which makes for extra work as things are constantly having to be re-done at the last minute. Great, talented people leave all the time. Staff retention is low, because the quality of Senior Managment is low, everything is last minute because senior managment are not aligned with each other and don't have a 12 month plan. An established company that operates like a start-up. Change one major thing and the company could soar.
