Pros

• Hybrid / Work from home • Office has a good location • Good staff discount • Excellent implementation of diversity & inclusion • Excellent implementation of culture & values. Fanatics actually are great for helping to push better understanding of different cultures across the organisation

Cons

• Really, really hard to form good working relationships if you’re not in the right clique. • Awful pay - doesn’t reflect the market average. Awful bonus structure too. The bonus isn’t actually worth receiving once you’ve paid tax on it. • Really poor employee morale - overall mood tends to be quite low. Most people you speak to tend to be massively overworked and relatively unhappy on a day to day basis. • Weird progression ladder - again, if you’re in the right clique, you’ll progress rapidly. If you’re not in the right clique, unfortunately you can give your all to the company and essentially be laughed out of the room when you express promotion consideration.

Pros

The office space is great, it makes me want to go to the office instead of working from home. Upper management communicates often and clearly on the direction in which the company is going. Interesting projects to work on and good guidance from direct management.

Cons

Can't think of any yet. Will update.

Pros

This is specifically for Fanatics Betting and Gaming (FBG), as I can't speak on the other lines of business. - autonomous work with the freedom to really put your stamp on projects - minimal red tape, allowing you to execute and move swiftly - full remote culture, with the expectation to respect employee calendars - stability- the company is careful not to overhire and retain its employees - the people- despite being remote, I feel close to my team and work around people who really believe in the mission and products we provide

Cons

- Remote work is not for everyone. If you aren't letting management know what you are working on, it can sometimes slip through the cracks. - Full autonomy is a double edge sword. It's fantastic for those who feel like their work is often hindered by unnecessary red tape, but it can be a struggle for those who work better with a set structure and routine. - Technology has been improving and the commitment to leveraging AI tools is encouraging, but there is still a bit of manual work still that can lead to human error. - benefits and pay are fair here, but you have to dig a bit to fully utilize all the benefits we have.
