Pros

Great people. Everyone is easy to approach and talk to, giving you access to a wealth of experience. Great community. All teams, though particularly the People team (HR), work hard to have everyone working together and taking pride in the company and their work. Great benefits. In addition to the free lunches that everyone will mention, they also offer a solid pension plan, health care, cycle to work scheme, travel loans, referral rewards, etc. Personalised perks. MOO give employees who've stayed for 2 years a felt doll doppelganger (Dollppelganger? sorry). Good pay. MOO significantly above average versus similarly titled roles... however, see cons

Cons

MOO have very high standards. MOO will hire people who have previously been senior or even lead but give them mid-level job titles. It's not necessarily a con however, my personal experience is: I applied for a senior role, was given a mid level title, but at a slightly above average pay than senior. I'm earning ~18k more than a senior at my previous employer. Progression is slow. Progression has been improved since I joined and there is now a formalised tiered system, however it's policy not to promote anyone within 12 months of joining.

Pros

A bunch of incredible & passionate people, who are specialists in their field, love what they do, and are completely trusted creates a people centric culture you can almost touch. The office is incredible, a space where you can work in an environment that best suits you (a sofa, a desk (standing or sitting), or upside down on the worlds comfiest chair!) The benefits coupled with flexible working make it a place where you can feel completely comfortable in your own skin. Benefits include free breakfast, free ice cream and free fruit all day long! Free Friday lunches, flexible hours, profit share, a ridiculous amount of free cake, free products, pension matching, an extra days holiday for each year you work and a mini sabbatical when you hit 5 years. You are encouraged to have work life balance, it is so refreshing to work in a company where you get to be yourself, socialise with incredible people and also go home and have a life too!

Cons

The free cake is playing havoc with my diet!

Pros

Free lunch on a Friday Free beer/wine on a Friday Free breakfast, fruit, tea and coffee every day Great Christmas party Fairly relaxed on when you arrive in the morning

Cons

Management, HR and some employees are far too fake for my liking. I prefer working with people who tell it like it is. I worked in the marketing team and there was no real leadership, a lack of team-work and no sense of camaraderie when I was there. No support/encouragement from management. Little to no contact with anyone other than direct line manager. Disparity in the way that different teams worked and were managed. For example, the tech team often complained of being bored and having nothing to do whilst the design team always seemed to be stacked. High staff turnover - since I was made redundant, numerous others have left too (whether through their own choice or via redundancy). MOO seem happy to adopt a hire and fire approach and will happily get rid of people when they no longer serve a purpose in their eyes.
