Pros

Remote working, some great people in middle management. Some benefits are good. Work life balance is good.

Cons

Equipment - you won't get a new laptop unless yours completely dies. Good luck developing on a 5 year old machine. (even older for some) Salary Everyone that i know left because of the salary lacking behind average market rate. You will start on a good wage, however this will easily fall behind market rate after years of getting under 2% pay rises. Offshoring The company's hiring strategy has increasingly focused on recruiting outside of the UK. This shift has tangible impacts on team dynamics and the feasibility of in-person social events, which now seem to be more frequent for sales teams or in locations outside of the UK. Progression Opportunities for advancement appear to be highly dependent on the specific product team one is part of. Almost as if each product team operates like a distinct entity within Iris.

Pros

You get support from management and training. I am an engineer and I love to develop out-of-the-box ideas and we get to do that every quarter. There was one incident with a colleague and the company and mangement handled it brilliantly. I am remote only but the company still want you to feel part of the family. Couldn't be more supportive of people who are different. Progressive with their diversity and inclusion.

Cons

Currently, we have limited Pluralsight licenses so we get checked on if we are not keeping up the minimum hours per month. If not then your license is at risk and you have to give it up to someone else on the waiting list.
