Pros

Incredible office (obviously), free food and drink in supply so staff are well looked after. The products are great quality, along with an amazing customer service team.

Cons

As a young professional starting out in MOO I was extremely motivated and keen to work my way up the career ladder. After ploughing away at taking on responsibilities well beyond my role for over a year, I requested a fair salary review - I was taken to a pub and told that there was no budget being allocated to give the administrative staff. Equally, there was no budget to be invested in my department. Overall, my department in particular were made to feel like we weren't part of the company's successes and day to day workings despite being a key part of it. At times it felt like I was just there to serve everyone else. No office culture is perfect, but MOO tends to boast about it's cool/ quirky/ we-all-love-cake characters. In real life, the majority are very cliquey and they're very quick to turn into little gremlins if their hipster craft beer isn't in truckload supply.

Pros

Free breakfast, fruit, Friday lunch, and extravagant office parties (all superficial perks)

Cons

Many bright people with high ambition have left in the past 18 months... really sad to see a company with such a beautiful brand be so poisonous, and suck the soul/confidence/drive out of people. If you are considering a job at MOO, please do yourself a favour and don't get sucked in by the beauty - it's a mirage! Not really a tech company, so they can't attract (or retain) top talent. MOO is mostly a design and physical product company. Way too many people working here for what is delivered. The company head count could easily be cut in half… and if you get rid of the right people, output/quality/happiness would even increase! Way too many people at leadership level at this company who are not fit for the job and even contributing negatively. Leadership team only care about themselves and protecting their positions. Most of them have no clue (and don't care) about the day-to-day or their staff. Their tenure is long because they won't be able to get a job at real companies which would require them to actually work hard and use their brains. Extremely slow for the size of firm... 100,000-employee companies move faster than MOO. Nobody has autonomy to do anything. Promotions are given to favourites, and not based on merit. Performance and potential is not valued, only politics.

Pros

you have a job, if that's what you're after

Cons

- Almost everyone here is someone fired from M&S - The culture is totally fake. There is no openness in feedback and back biting is encouraged. - The free ice-creams and lunches are there to cover up management's lack of understanding - No reason to fire many employees - Work from home is listed as a benefit, but not allowed
